Statement


The intention of my figurative ceramics practice is to portray the human condition and engage with the present through historical, political, and cultural perspectives that are captivating and thought provoking.

I admire the artistry, skill and precision of miniature art and aim to emulate the process by means of detailed and intricate modelling with porcelain. The process begins with an idea, research and gathering of information until a narrative develops. Although this appears a methodical approach, spontaneity often emerges allowing for further insight and change. The pieces are meticulously hand built, modelled, and adorned with symbols which augment the meaning of the work.

I feel compelled to use narrative in my work and my former career as an actress for over a decade in London with the National Theatre and The Peter Hall company, alongside my love for art history, especially The Baroque, helps to convey my stories.
