-27.46794, Subtropical intensity
This vessel expresses the watery tensions of the sub-tropical city in which I live, the title referring to the Latitude of Brisbane. It began as a sheet of fine silver. Formed with wooden mallets and a sandbag, I utilised the soft pliant nature of the metal. Adding markings to the surface of the vessel with steel tools expresses lines and intersections of both an urban and natural landscape prior, to applying enamel over multiple firings.
