Channelling research and divination as an entry point to the trajectory of consultation, this piece straddles the traditional outlook of divination and the digital perspective of seeking to know, decipher or connect.

It portrays the reality of seeking in current times through a (camera) lens, a choice item for research, exploration in and an allusion for the digital world with clay as a witness materials utilized in the process of divination in the time past.

Carvings mimicking that of an eye juxtaposing a camera lens serves as a window to peer into the (un)known. Our current endearment to use camera and social media as our choice medium for exploration and understanding against our ceremonial/fervent ventures to seers for direction and answers. The form and materials are employed to acknowledge our traditional inclinations of consultations via priests and seers. A balance for the duality and nuances of these adventures.

This work, beyond a nod to the power of clay as a witness, is an ode to the age-long craft of pottery, a connection with our ancestors. We see through their experiences and represent the past in the present for the future.
