‘Since leaving college in 1998 I have been working solely with hand built porcelain - creating an eclectic array of functional wares, although some cross the boundary between function and decorative. My work is very much concerned with the simplicity and beauty of the clay and incorporating pattern and texture as well as glaze and coloured porcelain to create subtle, unique variations. Thinness and movement are very important in each piece. I am also fascinated by the transforming effect of light on the physical properties of porcelain. I grew up, worked and lived in a busy part of London, and my work reflected that, as I drew inspiration from city life, (buildings, streets, windows, sounds). Now that I have moved to rural Wales I am encountering a different range of stimuli.’
Justine studied at Camberwell School of Art (1994 - 98). She has exhibited widely - International Symposium of Art & Craft (Poland), Clay Art (Denbigh), Affordable Art Fair (with StArt Gallery), East London Design Show and Inter Celtic Festival (Lorient, France). |
