Down to earth

Down to Earth

Nijmegen, NL  

February - December 2019





Final pieces of the project TERRA_Tory commissioned by Fabrikaat

 


Based on the results of our research, we developed a series of water jugs.

The coloured bodies and the function represent the quality of the Nijmegen clay. Using different firing temperatures, the carafe shows the incredible variation of colours of the clay. The terra sigillata applied on the outside creates a protective layer.
