Katharina Treml
Working predominately in porcelain, Katharina explores thrown vessels as silent guardians of the places we inhabit. They can hold memories of a really good meal, a certain moment, story or person. She likes the tension between looseness and definition, the interplay of considered craftsmanship and unpredictability of movement in the kiln.
Inspiration is often drawn from the rugged Irish coastline, its colours and weathered textures softened and loosely translated into tactile surfaces and gradients of colour. Silky microcrystalline glazes are layered in different ways and sometimes fired multiple times to create movement, subtle patterns and depth of surface.
