I specialise in wheel-thrown porcelain. By taking utilitarian objects – a bowl, a ladel, a pouring lip – as a starting point to development I evolve a design into my aesthetic through the making process on the wheel. This, along with with a sensitivity to porcelain’s elasticity, smoothness and ability to stretch, guide my work.
