summer solstice # 5

Someone once told me that my cups looked like drawings of cups. I think of my pots as portraits of forms that are intended to be used. Today's drawing is of a cup designed by Isamu Noguchi, and a cup made by Warren Frederick inspired by Noguchi's inspiration: a Japanese neolithic cup. There are cups we reach for out of habit and there are cups that challenge us to examine our habits both in use and in the making.
