This striking handbuilt ceramic vessel by artist Kay Cooper, dated 2007, is a masterful example of organic studio pottery that blurs the line between functional form and sculptural expression. Crafted from unglazed terracotta clay, the vessel features a dynamic oval silhouette with asymmetrical walls and a pronounced vertical ridge that accentuates its handmade construction.

The surface is richly textured with a series of deliberate incisions and tool marks, giving the piece a visceral, earthy character. Viewed from the side, the sharp seam adds a sculptural spine-like profile, while the top reveals a softly pinched, canoe-like opening. The bold form is both tactile and architectural, making it equally compelling as a standalone art object or as part of a curated ceramics collection.

Signed and dated on the underside by Kay Cooper, this piece captures the authenticity and individuality associated with contemporary studio ceramics. Its raw finish and organic modern aesthetic lend it perfectly to Brutalist, wabi-sabi, or minimalist interior styles.

Whether displayed on a shelf, pedestal, or table, this vessel commands attention and invites close examination of its artisanal detail and natural beauty.
