Inspired by anything that grows, crawls or wags, Alice's expressive ceramic art resonates her African culture while her colourful and sculptural delivery makes her work as appealing as the golden Cotswold backdrop where Alice now lives and works.
Primitive and primordial in its influence, yet modern in its execution, Alice's work draws inspiration from her daily life and expresses her passion for animals and nature in her elegantly crafted plates and vessels.
Alice enjoys two aspects of working in clay. First the symbolic, fast and intuitive expression of concept and second the skill of creating timeless, refined sculptural vessels.
