Jane Plahe

BA (Hons) Ceramics


My work attempts to address, not our relationship to the earth, but the earths relationship to ourselves using a variety of clays dug from around cardiff to illustrate the variety, but underlying commonality of humanity and the transient experience of being human, against the perminance and complexity of the earth.

“He who forms a human out of clay puts into shape the essence of life made from a living material, clay….”
