·         It is made out of clay.

·         The exhibition name is Forces which as the name suggest it  shows the elements such as earth which is the clay itself, fire as the clay is fired in the kiln and even the colours used I think they suggests wind, air and fire.

·         It has a lot of curved lines with different lengths and thicknesses which I think they suggest movement, vitality and also flow. 

·         There are also some diagonal lines which give me the impression of action.  

·         The texture is smooth with some rough areas.

·         I think this piece of art work is made out of clay and glass which then are fired and the glass melts.

·         It has a lot of lines which are curved lines and straight lines. The straight lines are horizontal and vertical which contrast each other because straight lines in my opinion suggest strength while horizontal lines give me a calming effect, also curved lines give me the illusion of movement.

·         It has a roundish shape which shows unity and wholeness.

·         It is very colourful and shiny and the texture is smooth.
