Memories of Place
Through abstract hand-built ceramic sculptural vessels, I explore the emotional connections between memory, place and material. Drawing on the topography of a lived and remembered landscape, I seek to distill the essence of place - rather than represent it - inviting viewers to connect their own memories and experiences with the work.
Inspiration
My MA work, Memories of Place, is rooted in place and developed in response to Sawbridge, a small hamlet in Warwickshire, UK. This open countryside and natural English landscape holds deep personal significance, serving as both a sanctuary and a source of inspiration. My focus is introspective and autobiographical, drawing on personal memory and emotional connections within a topographical reference, distilled into my own sculptural language.
The photographs presented here formed part of the initial research for Memories of Place, offering visual references that informed the early development of the work.
