Aghadowey Patterns is a slip-decorated porcelain vessel inspired by the colours and patterns of the landscape around Aghadowey in Northern Ireland.
Using coloured slips, lines form sweeping gestures directly onto the porcelain. Some marks are bold and deliberate, others are intuitive, creating a surface that evolves as I work. The rounded form allows the decoration to flow continuously around the vessel, revealing new compositions from every angle.
The piece reflects the artists' love of colour, movement and mark making, combining the precision of porcelain with the freedom of painting to create a one-off sculptural vessel.
