I’m a London based graphic designer and found a passion for pottery six years ago.
I am continually inspired by nature and love the idea that a piece of earth can be shaped into a unique object which holds the connection between us and nature.
Unlike conventional ceramics, which are mass produced, each piece is unique
and has its own character. Different clays respond differently, and a potter can never totally predict the outcome of a piece after firing.
That’s where the piece becomes its own art.

We often forget that WE ARE NATURE.
Nature is not something separate from us.
So when we say that we have lost our connection to nature,
we’ve lost our connection to ourselves.
