I have been reading about wabi-sabi. The Japenese idea that everything has imperfections and that those should be celebrated as a way of showing an items authenticity. This made me think of some of my earlier pots which had lots of flaws and abstractions. I don't ever want truly clean and perfect looking lines, one reason I love abstract art is it's 'realness' and the dirt under the fingernails look of pieces. I guess it would make sense that this attitude would also extend to my ceramics. Now i have a name for it! #wabisabi #ceramics #pottery #clay #pots #glaze #art #abstractart
