"Nobody is Perfect"

"Every living being has distinctive features.  However, it appears that in contemporary society great pressure is placed on fitting the mould of the perfect human being.  Many individuals approach this challenge by hiding or eliminating features in order to match given parameters.

This collection of vases aims to demonstrate the beauty of imperfection.  Made in delicate ceramic the vases are a replica cast of existing bottles enchanced and encouraged each piece has individual imperfections - dents, chips, deformations, scratches and other irregularities."

Henderson suggested that, compared with the genuine artifact, "This might be more comfortable."
