Sculpture: Circadian Definition

Ciracadian Definition is a study into both the use of light and the use of technology imbedded in ceramics. Originally I had intended to stuff it chock full of interactive circuitry - I realised I didn’t need to and that it wouldn’t say anything essential. So as of now it is a very simple object that reminds me of the Japanese aesthetic of maybe paper walls. I love it dearly - except for the name, which I’m not sold on - and it has led me into more work with ceramics and light (see the mushrooms).

Ceramics for me hold a great resonance with technology. The earliest known form of written language is the Sumerian clay tablets. I find the ostensibly incongruent act of mixing high-tech with ancient tech very appealing.
