14 - Tiny Hand-Thrown Bud Vase
Update: 2021-04-08
Description
A small terracotta vessel handmade by a family of potters in a village outside Bundi, India.
A shorter than average episode, wherein I leverage my digital hoard as a memory aid to fill in blurry memories of India. I explore (in the words of Rudyard Kipling) “a palace as men build for themselves in uneasy dreams -- the work of goblins rather than of men.” I find a little clay bud vase at the end of a day in the back of an autorickshaw, jouncing around the Rajasthani backroads to go step in stepwells and soak in timeless village life. And there’s monkeys.
