Set of 6 Cups by Craig Barrow

About the Item

Set of 6 cups by Craig Barrow. Dimensions: 6 x 5 x 5.5cm. Volume approximate: 50ml. Materials: Slip cast porcelain shot cups, Internally glazed. Variations: Black porcelain, black glaze. Black porcelain, nebular glaze. White porcelain, white glaze. White porcelain, nebular glaze. A set of porcelain carafe and shot cups concerted over numerous visits to the Swedish island of Gotland in the Baltic Sea. Gotland has a rich abundance of sedimentary rocks that were deposited some 440 million years ago during the Silurian age when a warm, shallow, salty ocean covered the area. These rocks now stand as unique and unusual ancient rock Formations that scatter across the island’s land and shores. Not only producing a dramatic visual landscape, the rock is used extensively in the island’s building and infrastructure industry. The collection A Shallow and Salty Ocean is homage to the Gotland’s geographical and Industrial heritage. Moulds were taken from select fragments of limestone and cast in fine porcelain resulting in an ongoing series of vessels. The intricate stone texture and sharp, aggressive crystalline structure makes drinking with these pieces a unique experience, being as much functional as they are sculptural. The monotone unglazed exterior juxtaposes the gloss, colorful interior glaze, reminiscent of a shining mineral found within a broken rock. From the ancient ocean waters that first laid the rocky deposits, the roles of these two elements have been transformed through this collection; the ocean that was once a vessel for rock, the rock has now become a vessel for liquid. Craig Barrow is an artist and designer working in the areas of object and sculpture. Seeing design as responses to the world’s curiosities and shared relationships, his body of work stems from material exploration and production processes, observations of human interaction with objects and scientific and natural phenomena. Born in Nottingham, UK, currently based in Berlin.
