Sang Roberson, Terra Cotta Boxes

Sang Roberson's burnished, soft-shouldered, lidded containers blend the
definitions of boxes and vessels. The terra cotta containers are hand-built from
slabs of clay or slip-cast, then painted with terra sigliata (a fine slip of clay, soda ash
and water) and after the bisque firing, burnished with a soft cloth. Following
another two firings, the pieces are pit-fired with hay and sawdust.

The subtle, earthily refined forms and surfaces of Roberson's containers
have often been referenced to Asian ceramics. She also acknowledges the
influences of the Pueblo Indians with their burnished surfaces and the
pre-Columbian ceramics of Colombia which are reflected in her slab
constructed basket forms.
