Burning Tide captures a moment of collision—where heat meets water, and movement becomes form. Saturated blues and mineral tones surge outward from the center, interrupted by flashes of deep crimson and molten gold, as if the surface itself has been transformed by fire.
Handbuilt from porcelain, this piece is shaped entirely without the use of molds. The form expands outward in a dramatic, organic gesture—its edges rising and folding like a breaking wave suspended in time. Both fluid and forceful, it holds a palpable tension between opposing elements, embodying a landscape in motion.

Process
This piece is entirely hand-built from raw clay, allowing the form to evolve intuitively without restriction. Each movement, fold, and edge is shaped by hand, resulting in a composition that cannot be replicated.
Multiple layers of glaze are applied and fired to create depth, contrast, and painterly surface variation. The final result shifts with light and perspective, revealing new tones and textures from every angle.
