SCULPTORS QLD

"....The ceramic works are related to my life and interests: history, folklore (land and sea), bush structures, sign posts, primitive forms, discarded things, shards in the ground, foundations and footings of long gone buildings, old anonymous mechanical things, tree stumps, coils of rusty wire, tools, rope, bones, the colour of the ocean, nature and astronomy. It’s not so much about stories, or nostalgia, but facts and observations. There is a theory that heavy things in the ground find their way to the surface – we know that the things in water that don’t float sink to the seabed or, like gold, lodge in the cracks and crevices of river beds.

My new paintings also continue to explore parallel ideas and interests along similar paths...."
