On 1st January 2018, I began a project to make 1 bottle a day for 100 days.
The aim was to free up my making and rapidly explore ideas towards a new collection of work.
​
I created my first ever book, Sketching in Clay: 100 bottles 100 days and also a poster of all the bottles in chronological order, both are available in my shop.
​
Read more about the project in my interviews with:
and a feature on Colossal
Plus an interview by InsideStory below
100bottles 100days
Clay Calendar
​
Each bottle is numbered and named after something that happened on that day.
Explore the chronological grid to find your favourite or go straight to my shop to see which are still available.
