La Bonne Femme III

‘La Bonne Femme’ is a French word meaning ‘a good woman’, in reference to the woman shape in the piece. 

As part of Tè's fourth collection, Elegy is about ways to protect oneself from the inevitable deaths, the manifestation, and rumination of humanity and life.

ABOUT TÈ

Tè is taken from Haitian-Creole origins meaning ‘soil’. An alter ego to Margaret Yap’s chaotic and fluorescent prism, it is filled with ruminations of ancient ruins and hazy remnants of a colonial reign, as she uncovers a hidden sanctuary underneath it all. Exploring stoneware in a raw and rustic manner coupled with fleeting romantic ideologies, Tè evokes feelings of periodic nostalgia.   

This piece is food-grade, microwave and dishwasher safe, but please keep it away from direct fire.
