Anagama fired stoneware

This work is a portrayal of the two sides of me, a side that is open and a side that's closed. It's shown in these two vases, Anagama fired from two different kilns, and they balance in form, color and the texture. And unify in harmony as one artwork.  A very personal and important work in my series of work on person and life.

These works are folded, by making slabs and the form came through organically.

An Anagama is a Japanese term meaning "Cave kiln". Fueled with a continuous supply of casuarina wood, thrown and consumed very rapidly in the kiln. Firing occurs round the clock until the temperatures reach 1300°C and sustained

The length of the firing was about 72 hours. Wood ash settle on the pieces during the firing, and the complex interaction between flame, ash, and the minerals of the clay body forms a natural ash glaze. 

These works fired within the kiln distinctly affect the appearance, as one of them was closer to the firebox and received heavy coats of ash and is even immersed in embers.

While loading the kiln I imagined the flame path as it rushes through the kiln, and used this sense to 'paint the pieces with fire'. This process of a week-long firing and cooling adds value to pots and as such has a high value
