Coming up on 8th May for @LondonCraftWeek: my show “The Golem” which this clip shows me setting up. The event is hosted by @collectivematter in The Potting Shed, their collaborative woodland exhibition space at Contemporary Sculpture Fulmer under the umbrella of @William_Bennington_Gallery. To celebrate this showing, join me in co-creating a monstrous clay Golem amidst the trees. Book tickets, which include travel arrangements to Fulmer, via the link in my bio. Also available to book are clay meditations with the wonderful @ankebuchmann #LCW2019 #LCW2019workshops #contemporarysculpture #emergingartist #wmergingartists #CRemerging #williambenningtongallery #contemporarysculpturefulmer #londoncraftweek #collectivematter
Coming up on 8th May for @LondonCraftWeek: my show “The Golem” featured by @collectivematter, on display in The Potting Shed, the collaborative woodland exhibition space at Contemporary Sculpture Fulmer run by @William_Bennington_Gallery. To celebrate this showing, join me in co-creating a monstrous clay Golem amidst the trees in a hands-on and raucous workshop.

WhyTheFace? I am undertaking an exploration of what emotions look like and feel like at the moment. Here is some work in progress - the fired work was shown @ceramicartlondon last weekend in the FutureExperts Show. Hope to make a Field of Emotions as part of my final Degree Show Piece this June. . . . #contemporarysculpture #ceramicsculpture #figurative clay #emergingartist #cremerging
Site meeting yesterday at #ThePottingShed @contemporarysculpturefulmer with the wonderful @collective.matter, @katie_spragg_ceram, @evamasterman and @ankebuchmann preparing for our exhibitions and events there on 8th and 12th May for @londoncraftweek. So excited about setting up my golem display there next week in preparation. To participate in visits and workshops go to the link in my bio. . . . #contemporarysculpture #ceramicsculpture #golem #figurativeclay #publicengagement #shadowpuppets #makingtogether
We did it! Well done @csm_bacd for a super successful work in Progress Show at @ceramicartlondon. Thank you so much to the organisers for giving us this opportunity. @allumandy_ceramics hope we cleared up in line with your high standards. A group award for studio best practice? Have a restful Easter break everyone!
So great to hear the full @collective.matter story from @evamasterman and @katie_spragg_ceram today at @ceramicartlondon Clay Talks. This duo’s energy and passion is infectious! I am so grateful to them for inviting me to be part of their residency programme. It has been a big privilege and generous learning opportunity, that I hope to share with you all during @londoncraftweek when I will be exhibiting the work I made while in their studio as well as holding a workshop out at their #pottingshed at Contemporary Art Fulmer on 8th May. More details to follow ....
Great day on the @peoples_vote #putittothepeople March. Great speeches in Parl Sq. #SandiToksvig, @carolinelucas and #annasoubry all made me cry. Michael Heseltine taking the long view. As Sandy said, in the last 20 years mass demo’s like this have all proven to be on the right side of history. Fingers crossed the donkeys in government listen up and the back benchers find their back bones this week and take back control from the MayBot. We want the #finalsay on her deal, with the option to remain in the EU.
So pleased to be exhibiting work with my cohort of fellow 3rd Year @csm_bacd - the Future Experts at @ceramicartlondon . The show is on today and tomorrow - come down and check out our work gallery tucked behind the Aluminium Caravan Cafe. On display is our work in progress towards our final degree show in June. @leanneaurora @valenderr @madebyaimeex @lornart @jujubean @nuukceramics_london @nehal_ceramics @ewe_clay @leonora_lockhart @ccclay_ @jopearlceramics @jujubeansceramics
#peoplesvotemarch on Sat 23rd March 12 Noon starting on Park Lane. Students at #UAL say ’Be There’ #forourfuturesake. The Brexit nonsense has to stop.
I am currently in Week 3 of the production of my sculpted animated clay portrait of Charles Darwin’s great great grandson William Pryor. I am photographing each iteration of the sculpture and editing them into a stop motion film. Thanks to the amazing @w_pryor who agreed to sit for me and emote through the 6 emotions defined by his famous forebear as fundamental to all humankind whether you live in Papua New Guinea or Pinner. These images show the expressions gentle happiness, anger and despair. You can see a rough cut of the the film so far at @ceramicartlondon held at Central St Martins 22-24th March where soon to be graduating ceramics students will be showing their work in progress. @csm_bacd . . . #emergingartist #animation #breathinglifeintoclay #clay #artinclay #sculptureinclay #claysculpture #sculptureclay #claymation #emotions #CREmerging
I continue to be the Lady in the Shed. Thanks to the support of @csm_bacd and the wonderful @allumandy_ceramics who has built me this fantastic animation studio in the CSM Ceramics Workshop to create my final degree show work. Working title Moving Darwin, which will include clay-mation animated films exploring empathy and our understanding of emotions. Watch this space! . . . #emergingartist #animation #breathinglifeintoclay #clay #artinclay #sculptureinclay #claysculpture #sculptureclay #claymation
@csm_bacd 3rd year fundraising today in anticipation for Valentines Day with cheeky bone China mugs with an eco twist. Come and support us and pick up a cuppa.
After last night’s crushing defeat for the government and Corbyn’s continued failure to call for #PeoplesVote, my terracotta Janus head - the People’s Votive depicting our ‘great leaders’ with a ballot box in the top of their hats, is still needed. This unfired piece was offered to the Thames back in August last year. It has long since melted into the tidal waters of the Thames but hopefully this votive offering is still doing its magic in our capital’s life blood.
@steph_buttle a triumph of beautiful work at her @cockpitarts PV tonight. Looking glamorous and life affirming as ever and that’s just the ceramics. Show is on til 4pm Sunday. Get down here!
Today is a Red Letter Day. So exited to be moving into my new shed studio today, lent to me by dear friends. How blessed I am! A black box of my own for the next 5 weeks where I can test and try out clay animation techniques before my return to @csm_bacd in the New Year. Virginia Woolf would be proud! Happy Days!
So enjoyed being one of the 700,000 on the #PeoplesVoteMarch demanding a vote on the Final Deal, including the option to remain within the EU. Great atmosphere, camaraderie . Couldn’t even get into Whitehall due to shear volume of people, let alone Parliament Square. MP’s need to wake up and listen. Enough of the chaos. Enough of the brinkmanship. It’s not working and we don’t want to be bullied into a blindfolded Brexit. We all deserve the right to vote on the options we are now facing. #finalsay #islingtonin #peoplesvote #exitbrexit
Join the #PeoplesVoteMarch tomorrow midday in Park Lane to demand a vote on the Final Brexit Deal. It’s the big push to stop the Brexit madness. I hope my ceramic votive prayer for a People’s Vote comes true. This raw clay double portrait of May and Corbyn was gifted to the Thames a few weeks ago to express hope that we can stop the National self-harm that is Brexit and bring about a change of direction. . . . #blindfoldbrexit #exitbrexit #wheresjeremycorbyn? #brexshit #inslingtonineurope #peoplesvote #openbritain #finalsay #artactivism #potsinaction #CRemerg #rawclay #performanceart #clayactivism #stopbrexit
Today is the #globaldayofclay AND #nationalclayweek and in honour I offer this image by Steve Mepsted of my raw clay People’s Votive that was gifted to the Thames during the #totallythames festival last week. This view shows Theresa May beginning to be swallowed by the tide. I really enjoy making unfired work. For its poetic ephemerality, but also here where it harnessed the power of political protest inherent in this clay votive for a People’s Vote. Lots of mixed feelings as the piece melted back into mud. Clay’s creative potential, universality, and wonderful plasticity are such a delight. Great to celebrate it today! . . . . . #globaldayofclay #globaldayofclay2018 #rawclay #claymyths #ceramicart #figurativeceramics #nationalclayweek #jopearl #stevemepsted #peoplesvote #islingtonineurope
