Katharine is an artist and ceramic maker from East Sussex. Using the pinch and coil method, she makes hand-built decorative clay vessels, inspired by the surrounding landscape and the gentle rhythms of everyday life. Katharine creates her vessels from dug Sussex clay and stoneware, smoke-firing them using materials gathered on walks such as bracken, thistledown and dock seeds.
She says of her process: “The shape of my hand, and the mood I am in, influence the finished pieces. I seek to capture the time that this slow method of making encapsulates.”
