Kiln-Made

Type: Ceramic Objects
Service: Designer/Fabricator
Location: Bloomfield Hills, Michigan USA
Year: 2008

The kiln, typically used to temper and strengthen a ceramic piece, is given a chance to play an active role in the form-making process. Overfiring the pieces sets the work up for controlled failure. The possibility of using the kiln as a tool that can re-shape a mass-produced item starts to ask questions about the alternate functions of our tools.
