Ian Jones and Moraig McKenna's beautiful Gundaroo home and gallery was recently destroyed by fire. This auction is part of a benefit sale hosted by the Canberra Potters' Society. It is also a great opportunity to acquire pieces from some of Australia's best known potters, as well as Korean master Lee In Chin! All work has been donated in support of the benefit.

A sinuous shaped porcelain basket, ‘Sonic Loop’ embodies musical data of a song within a physical ceramic form. Emerging from an exploration of the how technology can facilitate the translation of ‘sensorial’ experience to the ‘corporeal’ in the design of objects, the work incorporates digital technologies in sensing, prototyping and fabrication.

Lee In Chin earned his Bachelor's and Master's degrees at Hongik University, where he is also professor. He has broadened his exploration of East Asian ceramic traditions by studying in Bizen, one of Japan's distinguished ceramics centers, and through his recent work at a studio in Jingdezhen, China, where he began to produce white ware.
Lee In Chin's ... jars, plates, vessels and bowls stand as a testimony to his interest in the variety of colours and textures of clay under exposure to fire. The result is a spectrum of colours ranging from yellow to bright orange, red brown to almost black. Some pots recall the round "moon jars" of the 17th century, while others, because of their earthy color, are reminiscent of the bold round jars of the Silla period (third century to 935).
