Black Clay Dialogue
The work moves between white porcelain, coloured porcelain, and black clay, exploring how material shifts alter the reading of botanical form. Porcelain carries light and delicacy, while black clay introduces density and visual weight. Cement and structural elements ground the work, creating a dialogue between fragility and permanence.
This body of work shifts botanical form into darker material territory. Black clay absorbs light and carries visual weight, transforming delicate structures into grounded, sculptural presences.
Porcelain Flower Studies
This group focuses on individual botanical forms — single blooms, petals, and natural structures. By working with one form at a time, the focus is on shape, balance, and the quiet structure found in nature. These pieces act as studies that inform larger groupings and installations within the practice.
Coloured Porcelain Works
These works explore how colour changes the feeling and presence of porcelain forms. Soft stains sit within the clay rather than on the surface, allowing light to still move through the material. Colour becomes about mood and atmosphere, suggesting seasons and natural shifts rather than decoration. The pieces show how even gentle colour can alter how a form sits.
Porcelain and Cement Works
Cement has become an important material in the work, bringing weight and structure to delicate porcelain forms. The solid, dense quality of cement contrasts with the lightness and fragility of porcelain. This relationship creates a tension between soft and hard, fragile and permanent, reflecting an interest in how natural forms can be held, supported, and preserved.
