Projects

The Wild and Free Exhibition showcased my expressive glazing technique, using dripping and pouring with a free hand to create unique shapes on my hand-built pottery. In collaboration with my dear friend Robyn Vidal, we aimed to evoke shapes and forms within our work, allowing the viewer to explore and discover. The title Wild and Free reflects our vision of unrestrained creativity and the dynamic nature of our pieces.

My very first exhibition was both exciting and humbling—a moment of stepping out into the world with my work. Showcasing my Raku pottery for the first time, along with pieces I had been developing, I explored different clays and glazes, searching for my unique voice in the pottery world. The experience was deeply moving, as so many friends and visitors came to see my work, connecting with it in a way I hadn’t imagined. I was humbled to the core as they chose to take my pieces home, giving them new life in their own spaces.

My first gallery exhibition—wow! Sydney Road Gallery selected my work for their latest collection ahead of the 2024 Christmas expo, a moment that left me both grateful and thrilled. Having a gallery take an interest in my pottery was an incredible milestone, one that filled me with excitement and motivation. It was an amazing and successful show, and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me next. Watch this space!

Pottery Wall Hangings and Masks are a meaningful way for me to channel my fascination with Africa and the deep earthy essence of its land and people. By merging Glazed Raku with the creation of masks and wall pieces, I aim to capture some of Africa's richness, warmth, and Vibrant spirit. Each piece becomes a tribute to the textures and stories that inspire me, with bold patterns and organic forms that reflect my own connection to nature. I find joy in the process and look forward to exploring other clays and glazes to bring even more depth and variety to this evolving creation.
