We as a multitude of cultures living in close proximity churn, swirl, or coalesce around mutual issues, just like gyres, which are large systems of ocean currents. This piece represents that strange sort of organized chaos for me.
This piece forms part of what I call the Happy Accident Series because the first of these was created after I had accidentally bumped into a table and broken many pieces I was creating on a deadline, was at a loss, and decided to try something new to help break my sense of frustration. The name came to me because my mentor loves using that phrase when what was thought to be a ruined opportunity is reworked to become something even better than before.
I picture this ceramic piece hanging on a wall, or maybe sitting on a display shelf, to help brighten someone's day.
