Inspired by the tree-bound stone ruins of Kadish Tolesa, one of the Ages of Uru, this decorative piece is hand-carved and -pierced from a wheel-thrown clay cylinder, and fired without glaze to allow the texture of the clay and carving to take focus.

Sounds pretentious! Actually, I spent a few days carving this one out without a real plan or pattern, so it's kind of rough. If I'd had more time I would have done something interesting with the inside of it as well. It's heavily influenced by Stephen Martinere's gorgeous concept art for Uru: Ages Beyond Myst, and by the line-of-sight puzzle of the Age.

This is one of a set of three Uru-inspired ceramic vessels. Hopefully I will get the piece representing Teledahn submitted soon. The piece representing Eder Kemo is here: [link]

Size: approx. 7.5 cm tall

Gorgeous, I would love to have one.

I had a thought ... I wonder if you might entertain the idea of having this laser scanned, turning it into a digital model in 3D Studio Max and then 3D printed in sandstone.

Let me know what you think...

It would probably be easier and cheaper to make my own mold and cast it in gypsum stone or somesuch. But as I've already given it away to a friend I kind of like the idea of it remaining one-of-a-kind. :) Glad you like it, though! Are you a Myst fan or do you just like the sculpture?

Looks more like that building at the start of the Voltaic Age in Myst III.

Wow. Again: I love how you manage to weave the Myst imagery and symbols into regular items and craft them so well. This is so Kadish Tolesa... brilliant, as are the others and the variations on the GZ jewelry!

Way cool. Now I've got the urge to do some pottery again :) I love all the little details you put in this one, and the idea is so cool!
