Ceramic water sculpture 'Synthesis' by Michelle Maher. Here is 'Synthesis' just before being loaded for the final glaze firing. This will be a dark red glaze after firing. Each bracket was sculpted individually. To be exhibited at Sculpture in Context 2016 at The National Botanic Gardens in Dublin. Inspired by fungi and coral forms, it was handmade in my own grogged paper clay body and high fired in an electric kiln to 1260°C (Cone 8). www.ceramicforms.com
