About
Welcome!
My interest in pottery started in my early teens when I was introduced to a local ceramic artist who encouraged me to take up pottery. It's been a very long journey since and a path that I continue today. I took ceramic arts at SIAST and worked in the lab at Plainsman Clays Ltd. This provided me with an in-depth look at the process of mining and developing clay bodies and glazes.
I want my functional work to reflect my environment, be thoughtfully designed, and visually pleasing, an elevation to everyday rituals.
I am curious about human nature, how ideas and culture evolve and change. With the increase presence of AI and our attachment to technology I feel a need to be reminded about what it means to be human. Our ability to create, to use our hands, to be close to nature, separates the mundane to an elevated experience of presence. I have also developed an interest in photography and how it captures aspects of our environment and culture.
