Description

Shino is a hand-built sculptural vessel by Elena Yakimushkina whose simple, asymmetrical form offers a surface for the effects of wood firing. Its rounded lower body narrows towards an irregular opening, keeping subtle traces of the making process.

The vessel was wood-fired at 1300°C. Shino glaze, natural ash and direct exposure to the firing atmosphere created a layered surface of soft whites, warm browns and earthy tones. Glaze movement, ash deposits and fire marks vary around the vessel, giving each side a different character.

The work can stand on its own as a sculptural object or be used as a functional vessel for flowers. It is a unique piece.
