Artist statement

In my current work I have been looking at the notions of connection, similarity and difference. I am interested in human form, and my recent work has focused on family generations: the similarities and connections between people of the same family, and the differences of every individual. This contrasting idea of difference and similarity has been my main focus in how my ceramic forms have developed.  

I am interested in the idea of imperfect beauty. My forms are deliberately altered or taken out of symmetry. Swollen bellies are added to some, and deliberate indents to others.

My interest also lies with the abstract possibilities of the unexpectedly and unconventionally beautiful. Unusual crawling shino glazes challenge the idea of perfection through their imperfection, but extremely striking texture and beauty.
