unloading


I think this firing will be something that I talk about for a long time. These pots for the first time in a long time make me choose my words carefully. They make me wonder what words to use let a alone use them, and when it come to describing the work solely with words I am left slightly speechless.

Instead of going on about what happened during the opening of the kiln, I think i'll show a few photos and that will speak for itself. The first is the crew unbricking the door and then taking out the remaining ash left in the firebox. The following are in order from front to back stack of the kiln as it came out. I'll post more photo of the pots themselves as I am able to talk about them.


The last is of Cam Fishers large jar which was the top of the last stack. It went in raw and with nothing on the surface.....
