Working with functional and sculptural forms in clay pursuing alternative methods of combining form, surface and content within the Functional Object.
Clay is a material that so vastly differs in the ways it presents itself that it continually intrigues me as a maker. Clay is a microcosm of the universe, with its’ flux and seamlessness. Nature abides as dynamic change; providing the capacity for growth from destruction. Nature exists as perpetual continuity, where each and every particle is integrally interconnected. I am committed to investigating this logic, continually defining these ideas within the aesthetics of my work.
Animal forms, and images inhabit my work, through unconscious and conscious impulses. Layers of significance- layers of form and surface, image, content, visual cohesion, functionality, may all be combined. There resides in all things a kind of energy. I am trying to express this through the utilization of asymmetry within the symmetry of process…someone once wrote “it has a beauty as yet undiscovered by me.”
