three short walks, II
2012
"Three Short Walks, II" by Edmund de Waal comprises twelve thrown porcelain dishes in white and cream glazes with gilding, carefully arranged on a hand pressed porcelain tile finished in celadon glaze. The composition is presented on two white lacquer felted stands, creating an architectural presentation that elevates the intimate ceramic vessels into a gallery display. The work exemplifies de Waal's characteristic approach of transforming functional pottery into contemplative sculptural arrangements that invite consideration of space, arrangement, and the quiet expressiveness of glazed ceramics.
