Destroying pottery

Eric Landon is a Danish American ceramics artist and designer. He founded Tortus Copenhagen studio with his brother. Eric travels around the world teaching workshops about his craft, and when he throws a wet piece for a class, he can't take it with him. This means he usually has to destroy it after. He finds creative ways to destroy his pieces, either cutting them in half with a string or popping them with his hand or even his mouth. He says he has fun doing this because he gets to "let the piece go."
