Thors comment:
"In my previous edition "Hill and Gully", this pot was included first, but I withdrew it since I wanted to reglaze it, as I was not happy with the shiny expression it had received at the firing. The angle of the pot is 90 degrees which perhaps makes it more mountain-like than hill-like. Maybe it is perfectly suited for a spruce tree, or spruce forest?”

”That I have a past as a cartoonist can almost be sensed in this collection of arching pots. It is a continuation of a previous edition “Hill and Gully” which was a first attempt to create pots that tried to imitate hills and valleys to plant mainly forest plantations in. I felt and still feel that I want to delve even more into this concept and have lots of ideas for the future of this design. These pots place completely different demands on tools and new techniques as “breaks” in the shape of a pot easily create tensions that can cause cracks. This time I had to discard a few due to that, but the lessons learned from this are the driving force for new progress and challenges. Several of the smaller pots have been decorated, also a new technique that I developed during my participation in graphic printing courses that I have taken over the past year. In other words, an exciting and progressive edition that tickled my senses, I hope it tickles yours as well and bring some of my inspiration to your table for your future constellations.”
