Malik went abroad for the first time and came back a completely different person in the best possible way. The world, it turns out, is enormous and full of things nobody mentioned… like the fact that Italians just stand in the coffee shop and drink their espresso right there like civilized people and the whole to go cup situation is apparently an American problem. But the coffee revelation was just the opening act. In a hostel in France Malik met someone and the itineraries got rearranged and two weeks disappeared in the way that only the best two weeks do. Then they had to part and now Malik cannot sit still or think straight and is running the logistics of seeing her again on a continuous loop. The world got a lot bigger and somehow much smaller all at once.

One of a kind scary monster sculpture made with cone 6 white stoneware clay. Scary monsters are made from slabs of clay that are pushed and manipulated into their monster shapes. They are all fired in a kiln for 3 firings (thats 3 trips into the abyss of 2000+ degrees) depending on the final finish.
