My Porcelain, Nerikomi pieces are hand built and smoke-fired. Nerikomi is the ancient Chinese technique of layering different coloured clays to create patterns through the body of the work. I’m drawn to irregular repetition, primitive mark making and soft, earthy colours. I try to assimilate the poetry of things I see in nature and then allow them to rise up in my subconscious to inform the patterns that I put through the clay.
