Undulations

The magazine, Living Etc have featured a group of my undulations sculptures in their current issue.
Undulations are a series of individual one-off porcelain sculptures that can be displayed on the wall or plinth.

Inspiration

The core inspiration of my work is a celebration and dedication to the immense beauty and fragility of the natural world.
My sculptures are explored from a feminine viewpoint and inspired by my relationship and fascination with nature, the land, water, and the environment. My emotional and intellectual involvement with my subject provides the springboard for innovations.
Current inspirations stem from places that captivate and hold an emotional and visual pull, from certain areas of coast, reef, field, and wood.  To the uninhibited growth of lichens, mosses and fungi. The eroticism of unfurling flowers. The awakening of seeds confident of their purpose. The wild places under log piles housing micro worlds. I‘m exploring the rare, the everyday, the endangered, the ordinary and the spectacular.

Background


I am a sculptural ceramist, formally trained at Camberwell college of Art. I make detailed, intricate one-off sculptures, inspired by my relationship and fascination with nature, the land and the environment. The main part of my practise focuses on my sculptural work. From this core I have developed a further two bodies of work: one vessel based, the other jewellery. My obsession with beauty, detail and quality is part of a strong common language, clarifying and revealing the relation between the modes.
