Description
I apprenticed under Charles Krafft for more than eight years. After he passed away, I found this unfinished porcelain pistol in his studio. It was fully shaped but still fragile and unglazed.
I didn't want to change the original idea. Charles had already decided what this was, but I knew I needed to finish the piece to move it forward. I used overglaze techniques from my studies in Japan, applying skills I built both as his apprentice and through my own practice. It is a work of two different hands. One person shaped the form. Another completed the surface.
I placed the pistol in his original kiln for the final firing. It went through the same chamber and the same fire that transformed decades of his work.

ABOUT ME (TREVOR FOSTER)
I'm Trevor Foster
I'm a sculptor and craftsman who's been working with ceramics for over a decade. My journey with clay started in Seattle, where I studied ceramics, but my connection to Thailand began much earlier as the child of antique dealers. After graduation, I returned to Thailand to establish my studio in the jungle, where every piece is still crafted today.
My Approach To Craftsmanship
I believe in making well-crafted pieces that people can actually connect with, not just art that sits on a white wall gathering dust. Behind every object tells a story since everything I do starts with a philosophical inquiry that I turn into an idea before it becomes an object that you can hold.
