Description

This close-up image captures a pair of clay-covered hands gently shaping a ceramic bowl on a spinning potter wheel. The artisan wears a blue and white plaid shirt, with clay caked across the fingers and hands. The raw grey clay bowl features fine horizontal ridges formed by the throwing process. The composition highlights the textures of wet clay against the fabric and the mechanical elements of the wheel in a studio setting. Photographed in Los Angeles by Christie Hemm Klok.
