Lorna Gilbert
I make handmade white stoneware ceramics that are both functional and beautiful. I come from a fine art and textile background and am fascinated with texture. I want my pots to be held, used and enjoyed.
My current work is inspired by wilderness, the ocean and mountains. I’m exploring the relationship between matte and gloss glazes as well as their interaction when mixed during firing. This creates tention and fusion, hinting at unseen boundaries as well as reflections and shadows.
