MA work

MA work

My clay creations are seemingly personal yet often draw upon found sources, such as images from books and postcards, as well as photos I have taken myself. Works are inspired by the flow of things seen everyday, as well as by the art I look at, from past and present.

With a passion for the European arts of the 17th and 18th centuries and its spiritual persuasions, I find ways to translate this source material into my own experience in the form of drawings, paintings and sculptures, which are crafted from red earthenware, slip, glaze, gold leaf and found objects.

The works are freighted with strangeness and perhaps seem a world apart, drawing the viewer into a beguiling perceptual experience.
