current project...

My main inspiration for my current/final project is based around my images of old, ruined surfaces, derelict structures and naturally worn textures. I want to depict the natural damage and state within the old structures, walls and surfaces of the buildings I have captured, creating new pieces inspired by these forms. My aim is to create worn, fragile pinch and coiled pots, focusing mainly on their texture and surface, using different materials and glaze recipes to reflect my initial inspiration. I plan to incorporate wire into my work to act as a frame/structure, as well as providing a contrast in texture and surface, different to the clay. I plan to form a final collection, consisting of a range of scaled pieces which are all decorative home ware vessels, both functional and non-functional.

early days...

I'm currently in the process of getting my blog up and running so you can see all my latest ideas, pieces and what's going on! It's only early days at the moment but it shouldn't be long before everythings up and running!
