Tecnica: Scultura Dimensione: 17 height, 25 diameter Anno: 2024 Descrizione: Made with clay harvested in Castellamonte and painted on with a wild kaolin from Sardegna.

The textural qualities are inspired by ancient vessels and the degradation process they go through during millenia. Much of the pottery we have today in our museums was found underground and in tombs, often in shards, with cracks and heavily layered, through both the original decoration and firing process, but also the compaction of various soils in time. The vessels in the decay collection try to recreate this process with heavy layering of clays, rocks, sands and ochres.

The texture of the vessel has been created with the seeds of a Cyprus tree, and includes rocks and sand that have been left unprocessed in the clay body. This vase has been fired to 1150 C and is watertight.

the Annarita vessel

Jesse Buratti Pottery

Tecnica: Scultura Dimensione: 24 x 20 cm Anno: 2025 Descrizione: The Annarita vessel is made with a white commercial clay mixed with basalt, and decorated with a lava glaze, which adds the lush texture. The vessel is carved in order you give the piece not only craters from the glaze, but also in the clay body. The name came from an indecision of whether the vessels resemble more the underwater homes of marine life, such as coral reefs, or the lunar craters of the moon.
