Neither purely vessel nor purely sculpture, Ella Porter's vessels occupy a space somewhere between the two. Handcrafted in London as one-of-a-kind works, they belong to a practice that draws on archaeology and ancient jewelry-making traditions, where textured surfaces often emerge through impressions taken from handwoven beadwork. Guided by an intuitive dialogue with the clay, each piece develops its own identity, resulting in a collectible object that feels both unearthed and entirely of the present.
