Sanctuary - Brisbane Show

I am really excited to have a show opening with Andrew Baker next week. Please join me for a drink at the gallery on Sunday 9 December from noon until 4 pm or stop by the gallery from 4 - 22 December 2012. See Andrew's website for opening hours. 

Domestic Renewal

I have been lucky to work with my great friend and sometimes co-collaborator, Mel Robson on a really interesting project curated by Rohan Nicol called Domestic Renewal. We're among 17 artists who have each contributed items to create a single table setting and were encouraged to incorporate existing materials or objects into our work. 

"Works in this exhibition demonstrate how creative professionals are capable of challenging the way that everyday objects are understood.  The works suggest answers to complex problem sets like overuse of materials, resources and energy in our lives....Subsequently, the works represent a blueprint or prototype for how we can improve the way in which domestic or urban environments are planned and perceived."

Mel and I developed our concept together over Skype, then I did my part in my studio in Brisbane and sent the work on via Aussie Post for Mel to work her magic on in Alice Springs. This is the result! 

Domestic Renwal is currently showing at Craft ACT: Craft and Design Centre until 15 December.

Show in Canberra!

My work is currently showing in a group exhibition at Beaver Galleries in Canberra called "Crossed Paths". The show features works by three ceramic artists - Mel Robson, Vipoo Srivilasa and me!
