Liz studied Fine Art Sculpture at Kent Institute of Art and Design, although her love of working in three dimensions began at an early age. After teaching for several years, she attended a range of short courses at The Ceramics Studio. In 2016 she made the decision to focus her career on ceramics and set up her studio in Kent, where she now produces her work.
Liz creates wheel-thrown porcelain pieces that are both functional and sculptural. Modern, clean, crisp lines, alongside the purity of the porcelain, create a contrast for the strong inlaid lines that cut through the surfaces. The wheel enables her to experiment with variations of form that she wants the viewer to be drawn to.
The surface of each piece is linked by one continuous line that allows the eye to travel over the contours of the form. The drawings are playful and encourage the viewer to look from the outside surface, over edges, around the interiors and under the base, often connecting two pieces together through careful positioning.
Drawing has always been an intrinsic part of her work; the form of each vessel becomes a blank canvas on which she translates the marks she produces, inspired by the walks she takes, the maps she follows and life’s twists and turns.
