I am a ceramic artist specialising in patterned porcelain handbuilt pieces. My practice focuses on creating functional ceramic forms using a unique technique of laminating coloured strips of porcelain, in a similar method to the pattern making of wooden parquetry. Often inspired by the urban environment and textiles, each of my one-off pieces is a result of a technically challenging confluence of visual aesthetics and vessel structure.

My making process involves meticulously layering and fusing coloured porcelain strips or geometric shapes into intricate patterned slabs, using practices which are similar to the techniques of Nerikomi and traditional Ceramic Inlay. I find this process to be meditative and enjoy the challenge of combining different colours and shapes to create cohesive, harmonious designs.
