“The
work I am currently creating stems from a long time fascination with the
teapot. When I began working in clay in 2008, all I wished to create
was an aesthetically pleasing and well functioning vessel for tea.
However, this form proved too challenging, and in frustration I set it
aside. Only recently (and after a number of years learning to work with
clay) have I began to readdress the teapot, and pouring vessels in
general.”
