The Beautiful and the Absurd (final pieces)


The last project was based around Traditional Chinese Medicine and the ingredients used in the processes for it.
I have tried to focus the embellishment in my work on the part of an animal we see as a product i.e. fur, suede, leather. While leaving the 'body' part of the animal; represented in the ceramic forms, at a pale high fired finish. This intention is to represent how we can be distracted by seeing a product rather than an animal.



Ceramic, resin, suede, TCM herbs, pearl thread, fur, magnets, hemp cord.
