CLAY ON COUNTRY

2022

AUSTRALIAN CERAMICS TRIENNALE
Alice Springs, NT

Teacups, 2022, wheel thrown stoneware, glaze, underglaze, found metal .

A quiet nod to the enduring ritual of making tea, to the many cups one brews and shares while living and working in the desert.

Clay on Country showcases the work of over 30 artists living and working in Central Australia, both in Alice Springs and throughout the Pitjantjatjara and Ngannyatjarra Lands. The exhibition was developed to coincide with the 16th Australian Ceramics Triennale, held in Alice Springs, and is touring around the country from 2024-2026.
