This series of ceramic sculpture juxtaposes the architectural with the organic and the beautiful with the bland aiming at a peculiar balance similar to that of our modern lives within the natural world. These concepts dictate the materials and methodologies employed.

Sculptural forms are chosen to loosely reference architecture while surfaces are chosen to reflect characteristics of the earth’s terrain. An exploration of the qualities of clay and earth through the utilization of conventional methods associated with ceramics (building, firing and glazing) and in more unconventional ways conjoin contemporary and traditional methods of ceramic building and finishing techniques.

Referencing a minimalist aesthetic while working loosely within craft traditions the work directly references the earth upon which we walk and the structured physical world in which we live.
