Looking Like A Dish ,

with a spiral pattern,


 it seems, well rather plain, 

but when spun, it changes to form a never ending pattern,

 after years of work as a ceramic artist, Kenny Sing of Turn Studio has created a series of shallow vessels which double as zoetrope animations when spun,

 His project, Trepō, transfers digital patterns onto the one-of-a-kind curves of his ceramic platters,

the patterns are then either precisely cut from or glazed onto their surface,  these elements act as static designs until they are activated by a pottery wheel, as the wheel turns, the patterns come to life,

You can view the process for creating one of the ceramic vessels in the video above, and view more works on Turn Studio’s websiteInstagram, and Vimeo, I was quiet mesmerized as I watched the plates go round.
