Made by hand in Co. Clare

Two landscapes live in this work.

The first is the Irish countryside, fuchsia spilling over the hedgerows, poppies dancing in the breeze at the edge of a field, the quiet elegance of a calla lily. Flowers that most of us are familiar with, that carry their own gentle memories.

The second is the Burren. An ancient limestone landscape, shaped over hundreds of millions of years, where wildflowers push through rocky terrain in defiance of everything, Spring Gentians, Bloody Cranesbill, Golden Samphire. A place that stays with you.

Each piece is hand-built from stoneware clay in a small studio in Sixmilebridge. Coiled and slab-built, never wheel-thrown. Painted in vivid underglaze and finished with a glossy glaze, bright, tactile, alive.

And somewhere on every single piece, a hidden ladybird. That part is always Raquel's.

I am delighted to introduce my new direction of work. It's darker, moodier and explores the tension of who we are and who we pretend to be, the ego and the soul, the wildflowers and the soil from which it grows.
