Here is this week's pot progress. I'm really enjoying the underglaze and how it picks up the details in the stitching and the textures in the fabric. I'm getting there... Only a full set of pots to make now!
Here are the embroideries as well, they look like a funny little family all lined up. I suppose they are really!
I am a textile artist specialising in mixed media design with ceramics.
In my work I explore the everyday rituals and traditions that we are all so familiar with. I have an ongoing preoccupation with the ideas surrounding the family as well as woman's role within society and the home. This is a strong theme which runs through my work.
I have a particular fascination with the oppression of women through traditional textile techniques.
The themes of my work are also inspired by the materials I work with: found papers, fabrics and crockery.
