These ‘buckets’ were initially made and titled as such, as a reaction to and a skit on the generic, naff nineties ‘untitled vessel’ label used to describe non-functional sculptural pots of the time. The term ‘bucket’ somehow sounds like a poor relation to the loftier vessel. In fact the title 'bucket' is a truer description as the formal references for these works derive from metal buckets and watering cans.
