Ceramic Cow Container - 8(L) x 5(W) x 6(H)

This is a ceramic double pinch pot container that I made while in college.  Since I just completed moving and have been unpacking my stuff, I ran across my old sketch book for my ceramics class.  I had just unpacked a lot of my ceramics stuff and the cow was fresh in my mind when I started looking through the sketch book.

The project simply was to create a container using two pinch pots.  There was no other direction and the project was open ended as per subject matter.  Many of the other students mentioned during the critique that they believed that the project was either a piece that was a commentary on animal cruelty or that it was a social statement about the direction of our eating habits.  Neither were actually true, but it was interesting to here how others perceived the piece.
