THE OBJECT

Made to be held, not repeated.

A vessel made slowly, with the character of one pair of hands.

OUR CRAFT / JIANSHUI, YUNNAN
Five colours beneath the surface.
The vessel begins in the palm.
A line becomes a living mark.
Heat draws the colour inward.
Light finds the surface.
One vessel. One history.
