A Fish Pot (Fish Pitcher)

This ceramic vessel turns utility into reverie, shaping a pitcher as a single fish whose body becomes both container and narrative skin. A cool, tidal palette of cobalt and milky glaze pools in the carved scales and radiates toward the flared lip, where ribbed striations echo gills and currents, as if the form is still breathing water into air. The sweeping handle reads like a protective arc, balancing the dense, tactile midsection with an elegant negative space that invites the hand and the eye alike. In merging animal and object, the work suggests metamorphosis—an everyday act of pouring reframed as a gentle offering from the sea, carrying memory, nourishment, and quiet whimsy.
