This horse head is accented with soft metallic flashes that break into subtle rainbow hues. The unpredictable alchemy of raku gives the sculpture a sense of movement and atmosphere, as if the colours drift across the form.

Title: Colours of the Wind
Medium: Raku fired ceramic with wood base
Size: 14.5(H) x 5(W) in

What is raku? Glowing red hot ceramic pieces are taken from the kiln and placed in a material that catches fire, such as sawdust. They are then enclosed in a container with the flames. The lack of oxygen gives the glazes striking colours and patterns. Areas with no glaze take oxygen from the clay itself, leaving them with a beautiful matte black colour.

 

This is a one-of-a-kind sculpture. No others of its kind exist or will be reproduced.
