This is
a new version of my first digital piece, which I created as my final piece at
the Royal College of Art back in 2008.
It is a
small step forward, as the making of this piece combines the 3000+ year old
process of lost wax casting and 'post-industrial' manufacturing.
Over
the past couple of years, I have been keen to explore hybrid making techniques
as I think there is enormous creative potential in bringing together
'traditional' and 'new' ways of making.
This
way of approaching the creation of an artwork also helps to challenge the
notion that these making techniques are mutually incompatible.
So I hope that this small Wedgwoodn't
Tureen helps to bridge the gap.
