The concept behind my body of work was to use clay forms to explore the beauty of the Australian landscape, and particularly a journey up the coast. As a young girl growing up I spent my holidays at Seal Rocks with my family and my intent was to further explore those memories. My work includes a range of clay making techniques including wheel throwing, coil building and slip casting. My passion for ceramics flourished when I went on a road trip up the west coast and discovered a deeper appreciation for the Australian bush and wildlife.
