Robin DuPont and Christine Pedersen, “Fire In The Belly (2 piece set),” 2024

DuPont wood-fired porcelain jar (coiled and pinched with natural ash-glaze - pine, oak, fir, black poplar ash) with Pedersen sculptural metal crown (brass and bronze, made by hammer-forming, raising, and repoussé with hand-chased line-work, finished with oxidizing patina, heat patina, and wax), 13 x 10.5 x 8.25 inches (courtesy of the Gallery)

Robin’s wood-fired ceramic jar is coiled and pinched porcelain, with natural ash-glaze from pine, fir, oak, and black poplar ash. Christine's sculptural metal crown is recycled brass and bronze, made by hammer-forming, raising, and repoussé, with hand-chased line-work. The metal is finished with oxidizing patina, heat patina, and wax.

The title, Fire In The Belly, speaks to the drive and desire that artists have to make, and to the intensity that they bring to sharing ideas.
