YAWAR is a deconstruction and reinterpretation of Pre-Columbian Peruvian ceramic vessels. An aesthetic exploration of the interplay between body and spout, honoring a deep and beautiful tradition disrupted by colonialism. Functionality and sculpture meet in a group of objects that bring together opposite worlds. Past and future, earthy and metallic, north and south.

A series of three objects crafted from red stoneware, glazed with a dark metallic finish.
