"My current work is concerned with patterns made popular by 20th century
wallpaper design. Although I mainly work in slip cast tiles, I see
pottery as a way to invite those elements back into the domestic
setting. Through the subtlety of daily use, I hope these designs will
invoke nostalgia of past homes and heartfelt spaces for the user. " ~ Jackie Head
