For the last 17 years I have specialised in wheel-throwing after a training that began 25 years ago at Bath School of Art but my Masters at the Royal College of Art is where Porcelain became my focus. This is because porcelain objects are renowned for their beauty and delicacy but, as a maker, it is an amazing material to work with because of its elastic and fluid feel as a clay. These material-qualities lend themselves to methods of making not possible with other clays - like its qualities after kiln-firing, such as translucency, that allow it to glow in strong light or its inert surface that carries colour so well.
It is some of the qualities that inspire my work, alongside an evolving visual language that builds from one design to the next.
