Angela Edwards Ceramics

My work reflects the colours, textures and shapes of nature. Adding layers of glazes,different textures etc, all add to the alchemy of the finished piece. I like to use Mark making, curves, echoing rockpools, ponds and rivers, rather than rigid lines. Creating a unique ceramic piece everytime, much like nature itself. My clay forms are usually quite free, organic and natural. Working intuitively I will let the piece evolve in form, colours and layers. My work is created with a mixture of techniques including the use of large coils and slabs of hand rolled clay. I use a mixture of clay types and add layers of engobe, glazes, textures and pigments. Producing a natural look focusing on the colours in the landscape, earth and sea. Creating ceramics is a meditative practice for me, shutting myself away from the farm for a few hours does wonders for relaxation, creativity and mental health.
