North Queensland Ceramics Art Prize 2024
Gathering Moss
An invitation to slow down and take the time to appreciate the natural world, find wonder and significance in the small and often overlooked.
A meditation on time, growth, and the interconnectedness of all living things. It is an invitation to reconnect with nature, to find beauty in simplicity, and to embrace the ever-changing, ever-growing essence of the world around us.

Elemental
My work is a visceral response to the natural elements and destructive forces that shape the Australian bushland and in turn, our relationship with it.
Through Pit Firing I explore the dynamic interplay between creation and destruction whilst reflecting on the responsibilities we bear as stewards of the earth. The organic, unpredictable nature of pit-fired ceramics mirrors the delicate balance of our ecosystems, reminding us that every action has a ripple effect on the world around us
My approach to pit-fired ceramics is informed by a deep respect for the environment. I seek to minimize the ecological footprint of my work by using sustainable materials, reclaimed wood, low-temperature firings and experimenting with natural additives that require less fuel to achieve the desired effects.
Through my ceramics, I aim to evoke a sense of reverence for the earth's resources and to inspire others to consider the environmental footprint of their actions.
