When I began thinking about this project I wanted to keep in mind functionality, as well as sculptural components, since I am more of a sculptor than a potter. I also have a great deal of interest in the human body. My way of incorporating function, sculpture and a message into this project is to center my pieces around the senses that you use when you are eating. For instance, making a salad bowl with teeth to portray the crunch of romaine, or a popcorn bowl with a hand inside to demonstrate the tactile quality of popcorn. I was inspired by Rimas VisGirda's head teapots and Eva Kwong's surface treatments.
