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