"The map is a two dimensional representation of a three dimensional world, and these vessels serve to close the circle, bringing the two dimensional map back in the third dimension. Each vessel evolves from an experience and connection with a specific place, so that site, material, cultural implications, social/environmental factors and form are aspects of the object. The object has become the repository and representation of the place."
