Bark explores the idea of transformation. Made up of hundreds of porcelain extrusions, the repeated shapes form twelve sections of one continuous frieze. Each extrusion is made by pulling clay through a specially made mould, the touch of the hand allowing space for spontaneous movement and resulting in a unique shape. In this way the mould acts as a musical instrument, creating a unique song-note with every use.
