About JoJo

 

About me...

My response to our busy hectic lives is to create ceramic works that exude a sense of calm and quiet. My consciously pared back Porcelain and Stoneware forms are either made by hand or more often thrown on the wheel. Living in such a beautiful area of the Surrey Hills I can't help but to be inspired and influenced by the forms, patterns and textures found in the natural world. I carefully consider both materials used and form, to encourage closer inspection and invite the user to cradle the piece in their hands, allowing an intimate connection with the clay.
