    Core is a serie of vessels. Inspired by prehistoric african building techniques. I have been fascinated by vessels they have such a clear and easy function. There function is to hold and transport water. But besides that it has been an canvas for humanity to express themselves with.
    When I started to express myself through this object, a new form of language came out. I wanted to challenge the contour of a vessels by bringing them out of balance. Each vessel contains a hidden chamber that brings the vessels back into balance by weight of the water they cary.
