Porcelain Heart. Porcelain as a material is a complex and robust composite. The lengthy evolution of its production contains a wealth of historical and cultural significance. Using the techniques of granular synthesis, and sampled spoken word, Porcelain Heart attempts to forge form and content, taking as its raw materials the seemingly disparate elements of porcelain’s biography, and colliding them together. Porcelain becomes a metaphor, at times fluid, at times opaque, moving between the macro and micro structures in a piece which is as much about process as product.
