Sharon Griffin
Using clay, Sharon sculpts the figure and the face, capturing the essence of the universal human condition in its rawest sense.
Oxides, slips and glazes are drawn into the surface of the clay creating textured, multilayered works of art which are highly emotive and full of energy. Her knowledge of the material merges traditional making techniques with contemporary figurative ceramic, blurring the boundaries between studio ceramics and fine art sculpture.
Drawing upon her passion for education, psychology and story telling, Sharon makes work to provide a platform where discussions surrounding identity and connectivity can take place.
