Purple and Gray Teapot

Gustin works in wild fusions of sculptural and functional aesthetic, allowing clay to perform remarkable and sometimes gravity-defying duties. ‘Purple & Grey Teapot’ transmits biomorphic influence, its elliptical, fatty portions expressive of flesh in architecture and colour. the principles of the teapot are exposed & reinterpreted so as to search out for new definition, and to test Gustin’s aptitude in a practice that he has been developing from a young age in his father’s ceramic tile company.
