Path and Inspiration
Following many years of evening classes and working alone in my home studio my direction changed in 2022 with an injection of professional development.
The Buncheong tradition of Korean pottery helps to inform my ceramics; in addition, I draw inspiration from textile patterns and the natural world.
My work is placed in the long tradition of integrating Eastern and Western pottery dialogues for a contemporary audience.Process and Practice
I work in stoneware; it is strong, durable and ideal for everyday use. My work is thrown then decorated with coloured slips and underglazes. I use an electric kiln.
I aim to retain the fluidity of the clay in my finished pieces. Use of brushes to apply slips and colours help to accentuate the plasticity of the raw material.
