About The Artwork

My sculptures are drawn from memory, imagination and visual reference, using elements of ocean plant and animal biology and anatomy, to create forms that play with reality. I invite you to look, engage your imagination, and form your own narrative about the beautifully strange form.  This sculpture “emerged” from my imagination and is loosely based on anemones, whose soft bodies and long tentacles can be both beautiful and disturbing. At certain angles they can look black and oily, whilst in others iridescent and shimmering. I wanted to create something that had a softness to it, but that also had the power to unnerve. The soft body and tentacles have been modelled separately using a grogged buff stoneware clay and then attached before bisque firing. I then layered various low-fire glazes and oxides to create a mottled metallic-finish - I love how there’s a futuristic, sci-fi feel to this piece, reflecting the strange life at the bottom of our seas. Ultimately I want you to care about our marine life. I hope by making something beautiful, I can form a connection and inspire to protect our beautiful oceans, the life-support system of our planet.
