is needed now More than ever
Her ceramics are created in response to the surrounding world, focusing on urban decrepitude and renewal, as well as a lost post-war ideal – epitomised by estates, building sites, demolitions and new constructions.
Construction and demolition sites are recurring motifs in her work, where buildings and architectural structures are charged with meanings related to social change, hope and utopia. Moments in time are captured in drawings, collage, print and photography before being translated into ceramic as a direct form of documentation.
Sept 29-Nov 30, Potters, 9 Perry Rd, BS1 5BQ, Mon-Sat 10.15am-5.30pm.
Also on show are works by Potters’ 25 cooperative members on show, featuring an array of different styles of ceramic functional ware and art pieces to fit every taste.
