Ceramics Maths and Clay Exhibitions

I love making with clay and and I am interested in shapes that tell stories.

I teach maths with clay to help learners, and make ceramic sculptures that combine simple forms with glazed surfaces to show hidden forms and develop narratives in clay.

I am interested in the shapes we do not see – topologies from mathematics, spaces in the soil, and hidden stories. My current sculptures are called Cornerstones after the foundation stones used in Roman buildings and arches. The cube is connected to a surface inspired by the microscopic image of a clay cell, showing a contrast between the smooth cube and the rough cell, and a connection between science and history.
