Studio Ceramics. Crumpled Vase. Arroyave-Portela, Nicholas (British, b. 1972). White St Thomas stoneware clay, thrown, with very thin ridged sides, and manipulated to produce a crumpled effect, and biscuit fired. The interior is covered with very shiny clear glaze. The exterior is sprayed overall with thin red-brown terrasigilata slip, and over that with blue stained slip. The lower part is rounded. The tall sides bulge out slightly in the middle, and then slope inwards towards the oval mouth. The blue-stained slip covers the base completely, gradually becomes dappled, and finally shades out about half way up the vase. White St Thomas clay, thrown, with thin ridged sides, and manipulated to produce a crumpled effect, fired, sprayed with terra sigillata and blue slips and fired again. Height, whole, 50.0 cm, width, rim, 16.0 cm, width, overall, 23.5 cm, approx. 2000. Gift of Nicholas and Judith Goodison through the National Art Collections Fund.
