Working with themes of heritage has been central to my current work and development as a ceramicist. My practice engages with concepts of craft, material and place, initially motivated by an investigation of my own family heritage and contemporary practice. Ultimately my current work looks to encourage its audience to consider how they interact with their own habitats, as well as our collective connections to heritage and tradition
