Any drink – certainly a cocktail, but so too a beautifully-crafted spirit or wine – can summon an exciting collision. Sharpness within spice; salinity with softness; modernity entwined with tradition. This piece then is such a coming-together: the turbulent, successful process of waves or rocks of flavour or concept crashing within a single, monumental, thin-walled vessel. Both Scylla and Charybdis gulped down in one.

Where my photography often presents a frozen, timeless version of a perfected occasion, by contrast these new Vessel pieces explore a more open expression of movement and an ageing acceptance of the passing of time.
