Story

 

These ceramic earrings are made from two different types of clay, a natural-colored one and a black one, and is done using the Japanese hand-building technique called Nerikomi.

This year, I took it upon myself to try a lot of different things in the area of clay, I want to expand my experience inventory and also get the chance to play with other ways of making things with ceramics. Nerikomi has been in my radar for a while and I have been wanting to try this technique for a long time. My former studio mate, Agnes, introduced me to it and I always thought it to be so cool, but I always thought that maybe that was not for me, because it is so time-intensive.

Some years later, I finally had the gut! I tried different patterns and played with the possibilities that this technique brings, these Narikomi Earrings are my continuation for this technique.
