The Byproduct
Sunday Creek is located in the Appalachian region of Southern Ohio. This area's roots run deep in traditional pottery, moonshine, coal mining and its byproduct, pollution. The bleached banks of Sunday Creek are juxtaposed against its orange waters which are heavily contaminated with acid mine drainage.
The jugs take their shape from the traditional moonshine jugs of the region. The white crackle slip applied to the jugs prior to firing gives them a look reminiscent of the creek's bleached banks.
