There is beauty in transferability, in creating a design so simplistic and efficient that it can be adapted to serve multiple functions.
Adaptability is essential to my practice. I batch produce pieces, through use of plaster moulds and slip casting, that can be transformed into different functional and non-functional ware. The replication of size, shape and form is essential in creating opportunities to alter, modify and construct in component parts.
The basic forms themselves are ergonomically designed for both comfort and aesthetics, deftly transferable from bowl to light according to different thickness of the clay wall. This simplistic shape is coupled with a chaotic surface pattern informing a state of order and chaos, with use of simplistic tones that are equally sharp in the design of surface and allowing of reflection when the forms is inverted.
Above is a statement about my most recent work.
