Industrial developments have led to the displacement of ceramics and other materials traditionally used in the manufacture and packaging of consumer goods. Plastic is everywhere. 

My ceramic work transforms drift plastic and other cast-off items found along the coasts of Taiwan. Plastic is cast in in plaster, then clay is press moulded on plaster and hand built into transformational art. 

Work is fired in a wood kiln for around four days. Glazed and bare clay surface are a canvas upon which flame and ash from the wood kiln leave their unique marks.

Feed the pigeons some clay
Turn the night into day

And start talkin' again
When I know what to say
