Médium

Soda and salt fired coloured porcelain and stoneware

The histories of queerness have been largely invisible and hidden, sometimes by design. To create future relics from my own experiences is to make that history tangible – to provide concrete (ceramic) evidence of a queer world that once existed and will always exist. This body of work is atmospherically fired using reactive colorants in the clay body: clay as glaze. The colors melt, crystallize and invert during the firing. These pieces together weave threads of queer histories and tactile sculpture into a tapestry of beauty and power that lies in the act of resistance and the celebration of queer identities.
