MORE ABOUT AMANDA

As an artist my work is inspired by landscapes, urban and waterfront. I am interested in the beautiful crust, decay, layers of pressure and the marks of time. I seek to express the grit and truth of what I observe and experience. 

My work is currently functional handbuilt tableware, made with mid-range porcelain fired to cone 6, and occasionally terracotta fired to 04. I love the feel and experience of working with wet clay. My decorating technique is a series of painted layers, stenciled and monoprints with ceramic underglazes that are applied to the clay when it is wet and soft.

Throughout my career I spent many years as a teaching artist, facilitating groups for large installations. I am drawn to places where the community and the landscape are working together, where there is connection to water and respect for the natural world.
