Milk Chocolate Cup with White Chocolate Glaze // 2011
These cups were handmade from my traditional ceramic sculpture, which was fired in a kiln. The sculpture was later cast out of food-safe plastic, and chocolate was poured into the mold to mimic the effect of glazed earthenware. (These cups are perfect for milk and cookies, and if you're hungry, leave no waste behind.)
These chocolate hearts were created in the same fashion as the cups, starting with a solid ceramic sculpture and ending in a two-part mold and casting.
These snapshots were taken in a number of spaces: an abandoned building in upstate New York, an office space that appears to be suspended in time. These places of the past, preserved in the present, are reminders of the lives lived within them and of impending, inevitable change, as they sustain the weather and wear of time.
