I am driven by a desire to express my painterly sensitivities through clay, I revel in the interplay of vibrant colours against the canvas of white porcelain. Inspired by ceramic artists like Carolyn Genders, Maria ten Kortenaar, and Curtis Benzle, I embrace "happy accidents," fostering spontaneity in my use of colour and pattern. I specialise in the intricate Nerikomi ceramic technique, tracing its roots back to 7th-century China. By infusing coloured stains into porcelain, I achieve captivating patterns without surface painting. My ceramic art seeks to resonate not only through its intricate patterns but also through its delicate beauty and mystery.

I specialise in the intricate Nerikomi ceramic technique, tracing its roots back to 7th-century China. By infusing coloured stains into porcelain, I achieve captivating patterns without surface painting. My method is similar to millefiori glasswork, and involves meticulously layering slices of coloured clay in a block. After slicing and reconfiguring the block multiple times, I take thin cross-sectional slices to reveal intricate designs. I arrange these cross-sectional slices using “book symmetry” to bring out the innate harmony in the design. I then roll and compress the slices into a sheet, cut it into templates and carefully press the cut shapes into moulds. Once dry, the vessels are carefully cleaned, fired, glazed and fired again. My process, spanning 6-8 weeks, allows for the necessary resting and drying time at each stage. Driven by a desire to express my painterly sensitivities through clay, I revel in the interplay of vibrant colours against the canvas of white porcelain. Inspired by ceramic artists like Carolyn Genders, Maria ten Kortenaar, and Curtis Benzle, I embrace "happy accidents," fostering spontaneity in my use of colour and pattern. Innovation is at the core of my practice. Overcoming the challenge of arthritis affecting my ability to use brushes, I pivoted towards the Nerikomi technique. This shift enabled me to infuse colour and intricate decoration within the clay itself, bypassing extensive brushwork decoration. Continual experimentation with materials and techniques enables me to realise my evolving artistic vision. My ceramic art seeks to resonate not only through its intricate patterns but also through its delicate beauty and mystery.
