Description
Organic Modern large scale gourd shaped ceramic vessel by Shawn Banks. This 21st Century piece stands at 27 inches high and weighs 39lbs! The organic modern vase takes the shape of a gourd with a rounded hourglass silhouette. The yellow vase is accented with meandering coral colored lines surrounding amorphous orange shapes. Banks is a St. Petersburg, Florida based artist. The lines are reminiscent of waters flowing around islands, sandbars or through marshes. Conversely one could also liken the lines and orange bodies to cell walls around a nucleus, or simply enjoy them as funky pattern. The unique, gently weathered patina on the vase was created by placing the unglazed piece outdoors. Wind, rain, sun, and soil have left their mark. After allowing Mother Nature to do her part, the vase was cleaned and sealed with a lacquer finish. This ceramic vessel is meant to be decorative. It is not intended to hold water or food items.
