Katie’s practice embraces a sustainable and experimental approach, working with mixed and reclaimed clays through nerikomi and agateware. Shaped by both handbuilding and wheel-throwing, her pieces echo rocky landscapes and natural formations, revealing layered patterns and earthy rhythms within the clay itself. Her teaching practice informs her making, encouraging play, curiosity, and continual exploration. Each piece reflects a commitment to material honesty, sustainability, and the quiet beauty of imperfection.
