I took inspiration from the 150 year-old timber pond remains in the River Clyde, Glasgow. The ponds originally held water at high tide for seasoning timber.
I translated an assemblage of glossaries, reflective writing, photographs and sketches, into slip-cast, parian sculptural vessels. The weather-beaten profiles form the shaped face of the rectangle, contrasting with the clean, smooth geometry of the rectangular form.
