The Walls of Jericho rises like a fragment of ancient architecture—part ruin, part monument, part geological event. Built from layered slabs and intentional compression, the form suggests a fortress long surrendered to time: walls once upright now softened, fractured, and reshaped by the slow insistence of the elements.
The surface carries a stratified palette of terracotta, amber, and mineral shadowing, echoing the sedimentary logic of canyon walls. Each ridge and collapse reads like a record of pressure and erosion, giving the vessel the presence of something unearthed rather than crafted. It feels discovered—an artifact from a site where myth and earth overlap.
As part of Hastings’ ongoing exploration of elemental forms, The Walls of Jericho stands as a meditation on endurance and transformation. It embodies the moment where structure gives way to story, where collapse becomes beauty, and where the landscape remembers what time has altered.
