I make individual illustrated stoneware vessels that record the richness of places in flux. I'm concerned with moments in time before the demolition starts, or the sanitising effaces, when nature and the elements have begun to transform. Combining my own unique method of printing with iron onto slipped raw clay, I create images from my own photographs and collages and from maps and old documents. The vessels are hand built from the printed slabs, the forms retaining a simplicity that provides a canvas for the multi-layered and often highly detailed imagery, which appears on every available surface, both inside and out.
