Kate Windibank
Kate Windibank’s ceramic practice involves a continuous exploration of form and surface, with particular emphasis on experimentation and process.
Inspired by geological formation, erosion and the transformational nature of time, she searches for the most intriguing sense of balance and contrast, strength and fragility. Using fragments of broken clay slabs to create hand-built, sculptural vessels with undulating edges, fault-lines and fissures.
The heat-work of the kiln is integral to Kate’s work. In the intense heat, ceramic materials and glaze react, creating movement and texture which remain permanently captured on the surface of the vessel.
