My Passion for Ceramics

  • Date:

Times: 4pm - 5pm

Mette Mayer will share insights about her life as an international ceramic artist in Encounters on the 4th May. No need to book – just be arrive in time for 4pm start.

Mette’s recent work has won the European Prize for Applied Arts Exhibition and she has recently had two pieces accepted in the Permanent Collection of American Museum of Ceramic Art. She writes: “I love the feel of clay and the immediate response of the material, which communicates at a sensory level. I believe the senses bypass logic and provide a direct route to our inner life. I work in a territory inhabited by fleeting moments… Clay transformation is an important way for me to interpret the world, to see what is truly there, to make sense. Clay is the vessel through which I navigate chaotic thoughts and unconnected impressions. My every action in clay refers back to a mental state and these gestures connect thought, hand and space. Each element investigates the other and creates a channel of communication”.
