The transient and cerebral nature of the youthful head, gazing upwards, is accentuated by the earthbound body, the vessel.
I use the contrast between the fine modelling of clay in the young face and the spontaneous movements and textures in the clay to express the precious time we have to be alive and our relationship to the earth. I was inspired by the miracle that is life, the study of sculptural reliquaries and hence mysticism and spirituality, and of geology. The vessel’s surface mimics the history of land, marked by movements of tectonic plates below and the water and wind
