Teapots - cubes - poetry -
another cycle

I return to the teapot.
The clay is plastic - responsive to my gentle touch - yielding - resistant - all at once.
It can be pushed and pulled - squeezed - twisted - formed.

I mold the clay - sensuous forms emerge from my fingertips - flows into clay.
All at once my hands and clay interact as one - new - unexpected shapes evolve.

Clay may be added - cut away - more added. The form changes endlessly until it is fired.
Then it becomes hard - dense - like stone.

I am open to the unknown - the unexpected - unpredictable -
chance - within limits of order.

The search continues.
