Kate’s raku and stoneware ceramics have been exhibited nationally and internationally since 1997. She received a Crafts Council Setting Up Grant in 1998 and has been commissioned for both private and public collections.
The passage of time and the ability of certain objects to connect us with our past are both sources of inspiration for her work.
Raku fired boxes, vessels and containers with permanently bound lids are conceived as small scale installations. Wood, slate and precious metal gilding are all used in combination with her ceramics to create a sense of balance and harmony.
Recent work includes a series of jugs that are tilted or upright, evoking a sense of movement and interplay. Positioned together in their family groups, they appear to capture fleeting moments of conversations and human connections. |
