Bronwen Grieves
Bronwen Grieves is a Nottingham based ceramicist who creates decorative vessels that balance structure with fluidity. Largely self taught, Bronwen has been refining her ideas and process over the course of three decades. Using both organic and manmade forms as a reference point, Bronwen is interested in the plinths, legs and arches which hold up constructions, such as bridges and water-towers, and incorporates these ideas into her forms. Bronwen creates pieces that are purposefully utilitarian in style.

Maker's Quote
I am influenced by both natural and industrial forms and textures; a love of structure is fundamental to my work, both in the natural and man-made world. Inspiration can come from rock formations and grasses in my garden, to dockside machinery and water-towers.

The Process
The vessels are built up using flattened coils of grogged stoneware clay, incised with vertical or horizontal lines and decorated with white slip rubbed down to reveal the lines and rough texture of the clay.
