The ceramic surface has a remarkable ability to record gestural marks – which are then fixed by firing. These marks communicate, in much the same way as our faces, our skin and our gestures reveal our inner sensibilities. Caroline applies glaze and clay slip pigments to the ceramic surface with dynamic energy, and then arranges these planar shapes on the wall. The shapes can be flat, like tiles – or they can play with ideas of dimension, with folds, twists and turns, to create movement on the wall surface. Caroline’s pieces dance, like big & joyful daubs of paint.
