My work responds to my location. The collection shown, entitled Cultured, is an eclectic teaset inspired by multicultural London. It combines visual motifs found on traditional ceramics from my neighbours' homelands - England, Poland and Morocco. Each item is unique, decorated with different combinations of glazes, enamels and lustres. I also produce a range of jewellery with richly decorated surfaces entitled 'A Hint of Chintz'.
