Wavy Wall

This sculpture was created by starting with a single period of a sine wave at the base, and superimposing smaller sinusoidal curves on that in stages as the surface evolved upward. This wasn't done in a rigorous manner, so that the resulting form is fractal, but only in a loose sense. A soda ash firing was performed that led to a very different appearance to the glaze on the two sides of the sculpture. It measures 9" x 6" x 3", and was completed in 2015.
