Banana Na Na
Banana Na Na is a decorative porcelain sculpture shaped like a banana in an upright standing position. The form explores how far a familiar silhouette can be altered while remaining recognizable. The overall U shape gives a sense of balance, while dashed and twisted ridges add a sense of rhythm. The ridges also act as supporting feet, because the piece has no flat base. Banana Na Na was modelled digitally and printed in three dimensions as a prototype, then cast in porcelain with a four part plaster mold. The width is 19 cm, the depth 4.3 cm and the height 8 cm.
