Elliptical Black

Based in Oxford, Sally works in a variety of stoneware clays to hand build her pots, creating small, medium and large pieces, both functional and sculptural. Her work is frost resistant and is therefore suitable for use both indoors and outside. Handbuilding is a slow process and rarely results in perfect symmetry. Therefore no two pieces are exactly the same. Each piece is unique and she is constantly experimenting with different shapes, new glazes and glaze combinations. Her glazes are composed of few ingredients, relying on the magic of kiln and chemistry. She is very drawn to movement in her work, taking her inspiration from traditional classic forms as well as from the lines, tones and textures of nature. Her ceramics and skills are continually evolving and progressing, as she pursues her fascination with clay and its many possibilities.
