Pictured here is the piece titled, "Manual Labor", which is hand built, using terra cotta and fired to cone 6. This piece is actually a mixed media piece consisting of terra cotta, steel, wood, and pvc. The red "gears" in the background are completely terra cotta and hand carved to create the teeth look of the outer form of the "gear". The surface consists of a mid-fire glaze and cold glazes. I created a patina on the chain using a non-toxic citrus and vinegar solution.
