The unglazed matte porcelain surface is smooth and polished.

Signed on the back.

This is piece forms part of a collection of porcelain objects inspired by rural and industrial structures and are adorned to evoke the natural Australian landscape.

My heart lies with nature and it is here that my art practice begins with experiences of the natural environment which inspires my love of drawing to capture and interpret observations and emotions as abstracted images. Applying these drawings to the hand built ceramic form, observed from rural and industrial environments which have replaced native bushland, intends to evoke nostalgic thoughts and reflections of these structures and the nature that has been lost.

These particular pieces have been inspired by a road trip through the South Australian and Victorian Murray Mallee country. Reflecting on the seemingly unspectacular and mundane beauty of the region through both the built environment and the remainder of the natural landscape. The objects intend to evoke the evolving rural and industrial structures in my surrounding environment, while the decorative surface leaves an impression of natural landscape that has been usurped by human industry.
