Ceramic sand explores the question what the effect of sand is on the colour and structure of ceramic pieces. Using various kinds of sand from various places, designer Marin Jansen experimented with adding sand to clay.

In addition, she also used sand to make glaze. The same sand added in a glaze but fired in different ways (oxidation, 1260 C, reduction and oxidation 1050 C) gives different results.
