Earth Bowl is from a series that addresses universal elements. Unlike fire, air or even cosmic metallic dust, Earth's water is what makes our planet so unique. As the only water planet revolving around our sun, we are also unified with the larger solar system by countless numbers of tangible forces that are woven together like a sturdy basket to sustain life as we know it. Earth Bowl depicts these two unified realities with an overall watery glaze that highlights the rotational inner patterns of earth while it remains cradled within an outer foundation like a strongly woven basket.
