Artist reference

Ceramic Piece by Jo Corbett from RWA Autumn Exhibition

In this piece which I saw at the RWA autumn exhibition the artist has created small ceramic pots glazed in yellow and red and displayed them in a mirror triangle. The shapes are similar to the felt bowls that I have made and a similar efect is created because the glaze is seen both inside and outside the vessel. I will try using mirrors to present by piece.


Matryoshka Stones by Margaret Oomen

 I really love these felted and crocheted stones by Margaret Oomen. The combination of textures of the felt, thread and stone are really appealing and the use of monochromatic colours emphasises the textural qualities. She says of her use of the term matryoshka to describe the stones,

 " I am using that word not in the literal sense of a stone within a stone within a stone but more in the sense of layers each with a different tactile emotional response."
