There is beauty in transferability, in creating a design so simplistic and efficient that it can be adapted to serve multiple functions.

Adaptability is essential to my practice. I batch produce pieces, through use of plaster moulds and slip casting, that can be transformed into different functional and non-functional ware. The replication of size, shape and form is essential in creating opportunities to alter, modify and construct in component parts.

The basic forms themselves are ergonomically designed for both comfort and aesthetics, deftly transferable from bowl to light according to different thickness of the clay wall. This simplistic shape is coupled with a chaotic surface pattern informing a state of order and chaos, with use of simplistic tones that are equally sharp in the design of surface and allowing of reflection when the forms is inverted.


Mae yna harddwch yn y gallu i drosglwyddo, wrth greu dyluniad mor syml ac effeithlon fel y gellir ei addasu i wasanaethu sawl swyddogaeth.

Mae gallu i addasu yn hanfodol i’m hymarfer i. Dwi’n cynhyrchu darnau mewn sypiau, trwy ddefnyddio mowldiau plastr a chastio slip, y gellir eu trawsnewid yn wahanol lestri â swyddogaeth a heb swyddogaeth. Mae dyblygu maint, siâp a ffurf yn hanfodol wrth greu cyfleoedd i newid, addasu ac adeiladu mewn cydrannau.

Mae’r ffurfiau sylfaenol eu hunain wedi’u cynllunio’n ergonomaidd o safbwynt cysur ac estheteg, a gellir eu trosglwyddo’n ddeheuig o bowlen i olau yn ôl trwch amrywiol y wal glai. Caiff y siâp syml hwn ei gyfuno â phatrwm arwyneb anhrefnus sy’n creu cyflwr o drefn ac anhrefn, gan ddefnyddio arlliwiau syml sydd yr un mor glir yn nyluniad yr arwyneb ac yn caniatáu adlewyrchiad pan fydd y ffurfiau’n cael eu gwrthdroi.
