Smooth Coil Pot
The inspiration for this piece was a bowl shape. The sides of the piece curve out and out in a circular shape. I chose this vessel shape because it is structuarally stable and has a wide opening at the top. The piece was made by rolling out individual coils and stacking them around the circular base. Each coil had a slightly larger radius than the one below, which created the outward curve shape. The coils were then smoothed together to create a completeley smooth surface around the bowl. The piece was the fired, glazed, and the fired again.
