About the Item
A striking large nerikomi stoneware bowl titled ‘Spore,’ crafted in 2022 by artist Lewis Trimble. This exceptional piece is created through the meticulous and time-intensive nerikomi process, involving the layering and blending of black and white clays. The bowl is carefully hand-built, then fired and finished with a richly stained surface.
Nerikomi, a traditional Japanese ceramic technique dating back centuries, involves stacking and layering differently colored clays, which are then sliced and arranged to reveal intricate patterns throughout the clay body itself. This method highlights the artisan’s deep understanding of both form and material, allowing the patterns to become an intrinsic part of the piece rather than merely surface decoration. Nerikomi has influenced contemporary ceramics worldwide, embodying a fusion of ancient craftsmanship with modern artistic expression.
Lewis Trimble, a self-taught artist deeply engaged with both traditional and contemporary ceramics, merges time-honored techniques with his own innovative vision. His work often explores the intersection of natural forms and abstract expression, emphasizing texture, organic shapes, and the tactile qualities of clay. Trimble’s ‘Spore’ series reflects his commitment to organic modernism, celebrating the raw beauty of materials and the slow process of making.
To preserve its natural beauty, the sculpture is sealed with an archival, non-yellowing commercial-grade polyurethane, ensuring long-lasting protection. Designed strictly for decorative use, this bowl serves as a captivating table sculpture that bridges contemporary craft and timeless aesthetics.
The tactile surface evokes the solidity and texture of natural stone, intentionally crafted to age gracefully over time, resembling an ancient artifact with a story etched in its form.
