Welcome to the COLOUR issue! |
||||||||||||
| If you've been into the gallery recently, or visited our Online Shop, you will have spotted the stunning and colourful new ceramics by Maria Wojdat. |
 |
|||||||||||
| Specifically looking at the pestle and mortar, Maria has developed making techniques based on these actions. | ||||||||||||
| Using pestles, which she hand carves from plaster, she examines how the pounding and grinding action reacts with the qualities of solid wet clay to create a form. | ||||||||||||
|
Colour is important – through the work she investigates a warm, vibrant and joyful palette that has evolved, and continues to evolve, to echo the nature of the forms. |
||||||||||||
| Maria's work was featured in the June issue of House and Garden | ||||||||||||
