Mary Else
Hand built ceramics using varied clay bodies and texture. Influences include natural formations, movement and colour.
My pieces are pinch slab and coil built ceramics. I use different layers of glazes, oxides, slips and under glazes to achieve a varied colourful surface. I use textured surfaces.
New work also includes a variety of clay bodies.
My current work is influenced by natural elements and formations, such as rocks, shell and fish shapes, seedpods and music.
With my all my work colour and form are of equal importance to me. I wish to create a whole piece of which the colour must be part of the form, both inside and out. I also allow the material and it’s properties help inform where the work will go. This can also determine the colour and shapes/patterns used.
