Artist Statement:
A continued exploration of deconstruction, embedding elements in kiln-fired enamel, but now also drawn to burning, melting and carefully charring individual elements…repeat…burning away the veneer of colour…revealing glass, plastic, steel…..repeat…melting soft yellowy metal balls…repeat…reconstructing and rethreading. Remaking. The pale blushing pinks of fake pearls, a remnant of time past, leaving their mark on the outcome.
