THE LOCKDOWN COLLECTION
« Back to GalleriesWhilst working in isolation at home during the Covid pandemic re-visiting the Nerikomi technique presented a convenient way of making small items on the kitchen table, and also enabled Kintsugi work on behalf of a client; the insertion of gold into a firing fault that had appeared in an otherwise successful porcelain sculpture. My intention had been to feature this item as a "Not for Sale" centre-piece at an event to mark forty years as a Designer-Maker, this to launch in August 2022. However, the enforced cancellation of that celebratory event prompted a re-think; Lockdown items were photographed, set aside, and stored for show later. It was time to re-consider practice development.
