Frying-Pan Planets? Dirty-Dish Art Photography | Urbanist
I love how startingly simple this idea is, connecting the macro with the microcosm, whilst keeping relevant to an everyday/night theme. Anyone who has had the chance to stare at a clear moon or done the dishes can can relate to this work. The very small is indistinguishable to the very big...
Reminds me of Gerhardt Richter's Atlas images of the oven tray fat and oil globules... I am so fascinated by the way materials of different densities repel one another!

resin reinforcements
this big boy needed to be reinforced, I thought I heard a creak, and so action needs to be taken !
This is the back of Chemistry Scribble#1
2013, getting a facelift. Its casting resin - to soak into the bare and porous earthenware surface, joining every little mysterious hairline crack together.
It has been a long time since I used resin, but I luckily had great success with this project. Youd think the ratio "100:50" were simple enough.... And they were, but I was just nervous about it all and have been putting it off.
There is a mosquito in the resin somewhere as well, it was stunned and fell into the mix...
I dont think the resin takes anything away from the idea of the piece- it is against the wall and out of sight, so if I wasn't showing you now, how could you know?
It's nice to see this soft side of the clay :)
