Ribbon Pitcher Nancy Wood Pink
High-Fire Stoneware with Red Oxide Stain 11.5" x 9" $300 One exercise I delight in as an artist is the introduction of risk and craziness into traditional vessel forms. “Ribbon Pitcher” is a functional pitcher, but no one in his or her right mind would use it as such! I started with a smooth hourglass vessel and then “exploded” it into an organized chaos of ribbon forms. I thought the pitcher had a volcano-like look, so I used red oxide instead of glaze to bring out that hot, earthy quality.
