Taking part in Potfest Suffolk – Haughley Park

I specialise in hand-building sculptural forms, with complex, textured and patterned surfaces achieved by applications of layers of slip, oxides and matt glazes through multiple firings.

I slab build boxes, towers and vessels, influenced by architecture, ancient cultures and the relationship between the natural and the urban world. The surfaces on the ceramic vessels reference the passing of time on the human landscape. These structures allude to utopian and dystopian worlds created by the minds of men and women

I also have a fascination with the animal kingdom, and respond by making birds, seals whales and other animals, as well as incorporating bird imagery in my sculptural works. There are subtle imprints of the impact of industry on these sculptures.
