Modern Relics Magazine Issue 8

Description

Modern Relics and Artifacts in Obsidian are both collections that hold the concept of time. They are hand built, bespoke, one-off raw clay sculptures made from various clay bodies mixed with cotton linter fiber. As they go through the firing process, the fiber burns out, leaving space that holds memories — leaving creases and folds like wrinkles that reminisce about adventures through life. Each piece feels like an old soul as if unearthed from another time. Their beauty comes from the opposite of newness — the opposite of youth —it lies within their cracks and folds and uniqueness. They have stories to tell.
