"Woodland Ghosts" came to me as I walked in the woods after a severe
summer storm looking at trees which had been struck down. I have
been experimenting with white porcelain clay which is stark when
unglazed. There is a deathly blankness about it similar to the ashes
which are the result of cremation.
The "dead" trees become busy "hives" of life as they break down
into decay.The porcelain stumps are merely lifeless memorials to
the previous forms until the environment finds a use for them. |
