Artist Statement

I have created a series of hand built ceramic vessels inspired by nature. The main focus has been on the human form, concentrating on how the skin folds and creases. Whilst making the ceramic forms, the negative space has become as important as the vessels themselves. The vessels have many concave and convex areas, which emphasise rhythm and movement throughout the form.


The vessels have been covered in a cream terra-sigilata, highly burnished severely times and fired to 980º. I have then smoke or saggar fired the forms using hay and sawdust, which creates an interesting natural surface.

I am currently the Artist in Residence at Fred Longworth High School, Tyldesley, Manchester.
