POTD: Home Ground #22

Home Ground #22
Bozeman, Montana
2024

Some unrelated items on display here, but the horse and the vase have something in common because the vase is a piece of horsehair pottery. To produce horsehair pottery, the artist first heats the pottery to some insanely high temperature in a kiln and then drapes horsehairs onto its surface. They are quickly burned off and the carbon residue forms the pattern on the piece.
