Raku-fired Anteater

This is a Little Anteater that's undergone many processes. It's been modelled from earthenware clay and subjected to intense heat, then treated using the traditional Japanese Raku reduction technique. This process yields a bronze-like finish, adding an intriguing dimension to the piece. It has fascinating skin and lots of energy.
Sculptures Offer Exceptional Gifts and Emotional Connection
Research indicates that sculptures offer a unique depth of emotional connection, surpassing that of paintings. While two-dimensional paintings confine life to two-dimensional space, sculptures bring life into three-dimensional space, resounding more profoundly with observers. Their tactile nature invites touch, allowing one to experience the texture, weight, and shape firsthand. As meaningful tokens, sculptures transcend mere objects, making them remarkable gifts that foster enduring connections.

I transform simple, unassuming materials into sculptures that engage the senses and stir curiosity. Inspired by the Japanese embrace of imperfection, transience, and incompleteness, my work seeks authenticity in form and feeling.

The vibrant subtropical landscape I call home infuses my pieces with colour and vitality. I aim for clarity and directness, creating works that are tactile, approachable, and quietly uplifting.

In a complex world, I value simplicity. My sculptures invite interaction, offering moments of connection and lightness. Each piece reflects my own creative path and is made to bring moments of joy to those who experience it.
