About the art
As seen in
Artist statement
Inner Shell is a series of handbuilt ceramic sculptural vessels. The totemic forms are inspired by a macro view of broken and washed-up beach matter. Shells, coral, sponges, seaweed also include non-organic objects such as rope and fishing tackle.
The process for this body of work is hand-building with coils and then carving the clay to achieve curves and angles. The twisted coil technique is revealed in the hollow of the vessel. The bubbly bleached pink eroded surface is an application of glaze that is the signature of my work.
