Nothing here has been enhanced. Everything you see is derived from the object — the record below says exactly how each view was made.

Astronomy by Erica Nordean
Set your screen once. Hold a bank card against the screen and slide until the orange outline matches its width.

This is the photograph at true size, for placing it in your room with your phone. Its sides and back will appear here after the studio capture — we will not invent them.

The surface under moving light

This view is built only from real photographs of the work, each lit from a different angle, so you can move the light yourself and watch the real surface answer. It is being captured in the studio and will appear here. Until then we show nothing rather than an imitation.

“My current work is about capturing an overall presence of a single figure or creature.”— Erica Nordean

The dark one. A standing horse, head lowered, its whole surface encrusted where the glaze pooled and ran in browns and creams — the firing left visible as weather on the animal. Twelve by eight inches, glazed ceramic mounted in resin on a wood stand, so the piece is held against a clear sheet rather than pinned above a plinth. Of the four it is the most complete and the least serene.
