Process and Practice

I produce functional items first sculpting by hand and slip casting. Be it a lamp shade, plant pot or a piece of a jewellery - I want the item to stand up as a piece of visual art/ sculpture. I use porcelain, stoneware, earthenware, underglazes colours, I often spray my glaze finishes and use metallic lustres and digital transfers.
