More Stuff I Made

Wheeled Bird

May I present a few of the latest archaeologically inspired objects to emerge from the kiln? The wheeled bird is slimmer than those in an exhibition at Yapı Kredi last year. I haven't quite figured out how the originals were made. At least it doesn't tip over on its wheels as I thought it might.


Mice and a Spouted Vessel

Originally, these were going to be hedgehogs. Clearly, that didn't happen. These are quite small. They fit in my hand. Not all at once.


Anthropomorphic Vessel


A spouted vessel in the Louvre was the inspiration for this piece. The original has a hat, but I chopped it off of this one. It looked far too phallic.



Demendgehogs


I alternate between being very fond of these two creatures, or thinking they're just acceptable. They look a little demented, hence the title.

Wonderful, as usual. Those demendgehogs are just begging to be led and petted.... Their tiny noses are cunning.
