The Artist - Bridget Macklin
Bridget Macklin is a ceramic artist, whose work is a narrative, representing her deep desire to tell an unambiguous story about our landscape. Geology is at the core of her work. She is fascinated by the sense of power within contorted, fractured layers that shape our moors, mountains, cliffs and coasts and horrified by the damage done to it by the reckless behaviours of man during the geological epoch now known as the Anthropocene. Each piece is unique and fragile. She mixes wild clay and other materials into her work and delights in experimenting and in taking risks. Bridget’s work is high fired to bring out the translucent nature of the porcelain and to flux or burn any inclusions. This causes tension within the piece which results in warping, craters, exploded splinters of rock all of which add to the finished story.Other work by this artist ...
