Malcolm is well known for his traditional forms. He also creates another body of work that utilizes extruded brick clay, a strong abstract use of form and low temperature firing. This piece is a good example of the exciting results he brings forth from his kiln. With a lower temperature the natural ash does not form the dripping glaze we often see, but treats the surface to a number of subtle color effects. Various tones of a red-brown palette play over the surface as well as an almost metallic sheen that reflects the light and enhances the form. Malcolm’s forms do not have a single orientation and they invite you to place them with different sides as a base. 11.5h x 13.5w x 13”d (29.2 x 34.2 x 33cm)
