I think I’ll only ever make one set of functional pottery - dinner plates. Inspired by a trip to CDMX - where design culture thrives - I saw some plates that I desired. But the expense of shipping, worries about breakage, and cost, left me without food on my plate, and a sense of starvation! So, what’s a boy with clay to do!? And so it began, an exploration, size?, colour, how to avoid cracking and warping? Finally, after trial and error - one plate that survived firing. Tonight, my husband and I will dine on rustic, hand-made ceramic dinnerware. Next challenge? Will they survive the dishwasher?!!!
