Sgraffito Bowl




My class was set the task in which we had to make a bowl using the Sgraffito process. While making my bowl I also looked at work done by Gary Cattermole because he also uses Sgraffito in his work which involves him scratching words into his bowls, he also does personalised bowls that you can send requests into him for him to make for you to buy. After looking at some of Gary Cattermole’s work it Influenced me to decorate my bowl in a similar way so I decided I would weigh all my objects and write down all the individual weights inside my bowl to represent my objects instead of drawing them or writing down what the objects were. I also used Manganese Oxide on my bowl to highlight the numbers by making them look black against the white slip.
