Birds - Series 4

The great thing about slipcasting is once the moulds have been made (time consuming as it may be!) work can be slipcast quickly and easily, allowing the artist to experiment with different clays, stains, glazes and other techniques to create a varied and experimental body of work. I have enjoyed seeing how different my birds series can appear using different surface finishes. In this series I have simply drawn birds onto the interior of the pots, which are unglazed reduction fired porcelain. I also enjoy mixing up the arrangment of these series, giving a new perspective on the work.
