SUBSTRATES™, and Keraflex
Keraflex Porcelain is made from ceramic raw materials and an organic binding matrix which burns out when fired. Once fired, Keraflex is pure porcelain – 0.5mm or 1.0mm thick. There is no other clay body that allows such a wide range of possibilities!

My
work explores the sympathetic magic that arises through representing
the natural world in miniature as a way to capture and control vast and
unfathomable forces. In the series of functional vessels Luna-ware, the
works begin with the creation of models of the moon in porcelain. These
models are then cut and combined with handles, rims and bases to form
domestic vessels. The dark grey, cratered, uneven Luna surface provides a
visual and tactile experience that contrasts strongly with the smooth,
shiny white surfaces of the rims and handles, and invites an examination
of the difference between “natural” and “made”.

A little about me and my work….I got interested in clay at a very young age. My mom got me into some clay classes as early as 2nd grade and I’ve been making pots pretty much ever since. I got my BFA
in Ceramics at the University
of Iowa and am finishing up my MFA here in Texas. I work with cone 6
stoneware and porcelain and focus on making soft but structured forms
that are wheel thrown and altered. I have started introducing imagery
from my suburban childhood onto the surfaces
of my work using hand cut stencils and stamps. My aim is to create a
subtle narrative and loosely constructed spaces in order to bring to
mind memories of childhood, suburbia and home.
