It is based on observations on the underground of people being isolated through their technology sound bubbles lost to each other; in a sense being 'Atomised'. The ritualisation of our relationship with technology is edging us further away from commensality although paradoxically we all crave a respite from loneliness. \u003cbr\u003e Drink in Britain is associated with commensality. Subverting a 16C decanting pitcher to carry a narrative of ritualised technology induced isolation is a twist that on first glance might hark back to traditions of centuries past. It appealed to my sensibility of using a traditional craft object as record of an unfolding global phenomenon that is transforming how humans choose to commune. \u003cbr\u003eThe making for 'I and Me, wishing for We' saw the use of digital technology (laser, rapid form) as auxiliary to the main analogue traditional craft processes of hand coiling, sprigging sgraffito, inlay, incise, throwing. The piece sits on a handcrafted disc of Cherry wood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Srabani Ghosh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56931874767230,"sku":"HC1135","price":3600.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0911\/6545\/8814\/files\/Screenshot_2026-02-16_at_16.01.46.png?v=1771257714"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0911\/6545\/8814\/collections\/Screenshot_2026-02-03_at_12.47.38_826970a1-0a87-4d96-9c65-fc08a60fdb3e.png?v=1770132780","url":"https:\/\/hyphacurates.com\/collections\/srabani-ghosh.oembed","provider":"Hypha Curates","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
