Artist statement:
This series of ceramics was made during a three month residency held at Outer Space ARI in West End from April to July 2018.
Through a focus on technical skills of construction and use of conventional ceramic forms these works engage with the materiality of ceramic-making processes. and use mark-marking as a signifier of the temporality and labour involved in working with the medium.
While some of the sculptures or surface etchings reflect on personal experiences of emotional and physical vulnerabilities, most engage with a more process driven material play and the act of repetition and endurance required in working with the medium.
