Artist's Statement:
1. My vessel is made out of 7 different triangles with one at the bottom and 6 others made to create an opening in the top that is the same size as the other triangles. I have imprinted several different designs onto the 6 non-base sides of the vessel and also put 3 circular feet on the bottom of the piece at each of the corners of the base triangle.
2.The elements and principles of design that are used in this piece are balance, form and texture. The piece is balanced in that all the sides are the exact same size and shape. The shape has form, as it is a 3d shape and it has texture because of what is imprinted/marked into the surface of the sides.
3. The piece has no cultural meaning, however it's purpose is to look sharp and calculated as i tried to make all the sides of the piece the same size and make all the angles equal. The triangles are all equilateral triangles with a 15 inch long perimeter.
4.I feel like this is my best piece. Not only because it is my latest but also because I actually used a ruler and measured out all the specific lengths and angles of the shape to make it as geometric and sharp looking as possible.
