A vessel that reverses the Great Chain of Being (Latin: scala naturae)

Romina:
In my mind, nature is our creator. We should look up to the skies and feel small. From that humility comes the need to stop exploiting both sentient and non-sentient beings, and to reflect on our relationship with nature, and with ourselves.
Greek vessels once told the stories and beliefs of their time. Animot continues this tradition but reverses the classical Great Chain of Being. The human is no longer at the top, but nested within the larger web of life.
Simon:
Inspired by Korean potters, this vessel was thrown from a tall column of clay and shaped from within rather than pulled upward from a base. One hand lifts and stretches the inner wall while the other supports the outer surface: growth from within, balance, and care.
