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.
I apply glaze and clay slip pigments to the ceramic surface with dynamic energy and then arrange 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. My pieces dance, like big & joyful daubs of paint.
