Modern Ancestors P-165 is a one-off handmade sculptural vessel from Moïo Studio’s Modern Ancestors collection. Every piece in the series features an ultramarine blue lava glaze, which surprisingly reveals small spots of gold where it breaks to expose the clay body beneath.
The collection came from an inherent feeling of both nowness and timelessness. As it grew, the pieces became a family with a compelling presence, embodying a desire to hold space for something old that might resurface and be remembered, on the personal plane and also on the ancestral and collective one.
The vessels combine traditional wheel-work with hand-building techniques. The collection continues as research into shapes and into the blue glaze, which behaves differently depending on how thickly and by what method it is applied.
Customization is available on request.
