Preserved Glass and Porcelain Wall Peices


Here are two wall pieces happily in two different homes! 






Both Wall pieces consist of different preserved plants between the glass, encased in individual porcelain boxes.

The Ceramics Studio Bermondsey

I have also been spending time at the wonderful Ceramics Studio in the Bermondsey Biscuit Factory. Its made up of lots of diverse and different ceramic artists and is run by this lovely, super talented and kind lady Leyla Folwell, check their website out for wonderful courses and great Ceramic help!




Sun and Moon


The sun has a daily and an annual cycle. While the sun is not subject to change itself, but is either shinning or not shinning, the moon is waxing and waning, The sun is either there or not there, and only a very short period of transition exists at sunrise and sunset. The moon is never completely there or completely not there, and there is a short period of transition at the full moon and the new moon. The mode of existence of the sun expresses contrasts, an opposition between being and not-being, the mode of existence of the moon expresses transition and mediation, always moving being and not being' (Oosten 1983;144)
