8.5" ceramic rice bowl using topography of rice terraces with bamboo lids. Ceramic is hollow double walled. Bamboo lid doubles as a coaster.
Process (short version). Using inspiration of rice terraces topographies, I designed the inner wall of the rice bowl using RhinoCAD to be outputted into my CNC machine using foam. The foam mold was then used to cast the plaster mold for the slip cast.
Bamboo lid CNC engraved using my CNC, then hand cut to fit the specific bowl as each bowl slightly shrinks differently after being fully fired.
