The Body Vessel: Desire is a collection of ceramic vessels that emerged from Aurora Elwell’s personal exploration into the nature of yearning - how it shapes, compels, and often consumes us. Elwell’s artistic practice is driven by a desire to understand her own emotions, which she interprets into tangible forms. Desire is not a simple or singular feeling; it is a complex force that pulls us in different directions, simultaneously creating a sense of longing, fulfillment and emptiness.
