Description:
A wide bellied form that finds its way to an elegant neck and rim, this bottle displays how she uses the flame of her gas kiln to her advantage, to make wonderful and unique one-of-a kind pieces with spectacular and organic textures. It reveals Dora’s aim to create an object of imperfect perfection through crudely refined line and form, and to transform the earth into an object of beauty to outlive its creator.
