Stoneware Vases by Giselle Hicks

These hand-pinched vessels are inspired by iconic forms found throughout ceramic history. They are formal explorations in shape, volume, color, and composition. The slow and rhythmic forming process employs few tools, yielding fresh, dynamic silhouettes. The opaque glaze is soft to the touch. Fingerprints remain on the clay surface, celebrating the imperfections of the handmade object.
