Abstract
The purpose of this thesis is to explore functional and non-functional tea sets. I used these objects as metaphors to express my concerns about nature and my natural surroundings. I made connections with the historical traditions of tea ware in my search for a personal aesthetic solution. I used a variety of forming and firing techniques in conjunction with other materials such as wood and metal.
