The Beauty of Weeds - New Images!



The Beauty of Weeds, 2012.
Regenerated plant waste, hand blown glass and salvaged furniture from ‘devolved’ studio space.

The Beauty of Weeds is that “a weed is a plant that has mastered every survival skill” [1]... they just keep growing.

The Crumbling Ecologies Project goes National

We are pleased to announce the Australian Ceramics Association's support of the Crumbling Ecologies Project. Since publicising the project nationally I have been getting emails every few hours from artists across Australia wanting to get involved. This is completely unexpected and very exciting!!

The ACA will be monitoring and contributing to the project through out it's development. We will be working together to publish an article in the Australian Journal of Ceramics later in the year.

New from the studio today....our first batch of Porcelain Geranium leaves have come out of the kiln and they have cast beautifully!


















a few hundred more batches and we should be nearly there : )


a big thank you to Sharon and Jess for their contribution.
