Detailed Description

Working with clay is a hedonistic pleasure that comes with the responsibility of commanding erratic movements and wet nose rubs. The special project at IDC is an introduction to the specialty of touching clay in order to look into the lives of wild existences. The demand for a range of products for pets as a sign of domestication, be it a bowl, an anthill, a kennel, an aquarium, ornaments, etc., to be produced industrially, needs a study of accustoming pets to home life and domesticity. The possibilities are endless, from the utilitarian bowl to the "one of a kind" folly ceramics.
