Modern Ancestors P-020 is a unique piece from Moïo Studio’s Modern Ancestors collection, a series of handmade sculptural vessels that all feature an ultramarine blue lava glaze. Where the glaze breaks, it reveals small spots of gold from the clay body underneath.
The collection was born out of a feeling of both nowness and timelessness. As it grew, the pieces came to belong together as a family with a compelling presence, carrying a desire to hold space for something old that might resurface and be remembered, not only personally but also on an ancestral and collective plane.
The pieces are built using a mixture of traditional wheel-work and hand-building techniques. The collection is an ongoing research into shapes and into the variations of the blue glaze, which behaves differently depending on its thickness and method of application.
Customization is available on request.
