Meditation Boxes

These mixed media sculptures are porcelain boxes with hand painted rice paper. The rice paper is torn into strips, then folded and wrapped tightly to form a spiral which is fitted into the opening in the ceramic box. The porcelain is unglazed and smooth, with a little texture on the front. The focus then goes to the rice paper center which has varied tonalities of one to three colors. The sizes are approximately 4-6” across and in height for the smallest and 8" x 8", and 12" x 12". They are sold as sets or in any combination.
