The focus in my work is on the interplay between one living thing beside another.
My ceramic sculptures are a story of our relationship with each other, and our self.
The work is a mixture of hand built and thrown pieces that are then altered. The emphasis is in the contrast of the texture and the choice of porcelain and black stoneware as well as the various tones you achieve when combining them together. The placement of the individual ceramics gives them a new dimension by capturing the relationship between the objects.
I aim to reflect the journey of life onto my vessels; the history we all have to tell, and what makes us interesting humans. Life and our journey does not always show at first glance, but it is within us, and might only be visible if you look closer.
A Thrown porcelain moon jar hand carved with twisting details that cover the surface of the clay, on the side of the vessel is a fine red line of red embroidery that catch your eye and draws you in to explore.
Like little seed pods we all drift around in the wind finding our directions before finally settling and finding our ways.
