| Magic of fire | Dauphine Scalbert' s kiln in Lain (89- Yonne) Firing May 2003... | ||
The
kiln swallows its meal of enamelled pots. A few weeks', and sometimes
a few months' work... Patience while the kiln dries out slowly - several
days of close attention. 
Thursday evening. We brick updoor that will isolate us - more or
less - from the inner hell that is already building up. |
...my first hypnotic experience before a wood-kiln !
|
|
The piles of wood are there, ready to be ingurgitated by our ogre
who will gobble up half a cord before next morning...
