Eggocentrics

At some point I threw an egg shape on the wheel then I altered it so tentacles were coming out of it, creating the first of my Monster Eggs. I liked it so I kept making eggs and, although some are still monstrous, they go in all directions -hence the “eggocentrics” title pun as my eggs are both eccentric and very self-centered, like you would expect an egg to be when they don’t know anything else. This shape allows me to explore different techniques and designs. The opening and closing of the piece on the wheel bring me a sense of completion, of infinite renewal that is very well expressed by the thematic of the egg.
