These drawings by Elisabeth Kley were meant as studies for her pottery, but they have an opulence that I find very appealing. Its interesting how the designs for the decoration of her bottles are schematized and flattened out on the paper. These 2d works offer insight into her process and serve as a great counterpoint to the 3d pieces. To see more, go over to the companion site of the Bread: Postmodern Toaster.
