Pillow n. is a support of the body at rest for comfort, therapy, or decoration. Pillows are used in different variations by many species, including humans. - Wikipedia
A pillow is an object closely related to the human body. It is a personal place where memories and emotions are mostly registered. The ideas of mind and body, dream and subconsciousness, as well as the soft and fragile quality of clay, are explored in creating this series.
Materials used: various clays, glazes, decals, lusters, and found materials. Firing: electric or gas-fired to 1200 - 1300 °C. Dimensions vary - 3~10 inches in length. An ongoing project since 1999.
