Last year I bought this pair of jugs at an exhibition called ‘Nice Jugs’
by Vicky Thornton (architect, potter and collector) who brought together
a collection of jugs in the aftermath of breast cancer.
They were paired to complement each other, the similarity yet difference
reflecting the inevitable but often unappreciated a-symmetry of the post
operative world of breast cancer recovery. All were carefully curated to
sit as a subtle reminder of the legacy of breast cancer.
(profits were donated to Maggie’s Centres).
