Title: Life Support
Description: The piece “Life Support” was inspired by a grain pot or a granary jar, which are used to store food. The tile design on the jar features the fundamentals of cuisine: grain, fruit, meat, and water. Every single person requires these resources to survive, and yet some lack access to them. This piece represents the crime of humanity against itself through the excessive hoarding of resources necessary to sustain life, while simultaneously wasting so much of it, and how this system rewards greed and punishes those who cannot afford it. Coil built with sgraffito
