Pre-Instrction Vessel
The vessel was made out of small coils to create a spiral. The inspiration for this piece was a turtle, the vessel being the shell. The coils were attached using the score and slip method.
This vessel used pattern and repetition. The coils are all around the same size creating a uniform look. The focal point is the center of the vessel where the spiral begins. The work is organized into two parts, the spiral which is the base and coils building up around the sides.
The purpose for this vessel was to hold small items such as paper clips or thumb tacks. There isn't really a meaning but more of a function.
I am happy with this vessel because the coils look all the same size and can hold stuff. There are a few things I would have done differently but overall I am pleased with the outcome.
