There is an importance in death, life is fragile but to celebrate this fragility can be therapeutic and offer a different perspective from which to view the world.
My work is organic, inspired by fungi and coral creating a sense of growth and at the same time decay, as fungi feed on remains of plants and animals, dependent on death for their growth.
Colour creates an impactful and bright terrain, primary colours and those associated with the reef are used to bring strength and life to my compositions. With ceramics being such a delicate material a viewer can experience an array of emotions regarding its fragility whether uneasy, worried or amazed that it’s still intact.
