Instant Imprint
The Body as a Vessel, A Vessel as a Body.
Everything that lives, lives not alone, not for itself, and everything has its own story. My interest lies in how we embody these stories. ‘Instant Imprint’ is part of an ongoing exploration on how to approach clay with a more embodied method. By combining somatic movement, textiles and the flow of the instant imprint, instant touch, with the controlled process of hand-building and traditional coiling techniques – moving between control and uncontrollability.
Within the empty vessel lies an openness that invites us to find resistance within the fragile, a softness in the rugged and a stillness in this ever-moving flow.
