Australian Ceramics Community Member

About

An emerging Sydney artist, Gillian Hodes grew up making mud animals in her backyard, in a small town in what is now Zimbabwe.  After a diversion into the corporate world, her ceramics journey began in 2012, when she studied both Fine Art, majoring in sculpture, at the National Art School, and a Diploma in Ceramics at Northern Beaches TAFE.

The current focus of her practice is porcelain and its inherent contrasts: there is a tension between its translucency and implied fragility, and its characteristic strength and longevity.

Gillian works from her Coogee home studio, hand-crafting fine translucent porcelain vessels, marking them with the soft blues and evocative ochres of her beachside habitat. The pieces aim to evoke a happy tranquillity in those who experience them.

Adriana Goya, VIC | #repost @slowflow.ceramics ・ Adriana Goya, VIC | #repost @slowflow.ceramics ・・・ I was once a seed in the womb of the Earth Mother. Fired ceramics, raw clay, recycled cardboard and wheatgrass. ~ This beautiful rock we dwell upon Made us one and makes us strong She gives so much and asks for little in return but for those who listen her voice teaches us what we must learn. What started as a single cell has evolved to become human life and thus our story begin. The age of Anthropocene! Dominating our precious green spaces, taking more than we give. Creating imbalance which is rocking our comfortability. Our toes yarn to feel grass between them. To be awoken by the sun and set to sleep by the moon. Our natural balance has been wavering for some time now. But in this turbulence we must remember where we came from, the veins under our skin eco that of streams that feed our ocean. Fingerprints like rings in trees. We are of the Earth the Earth is of us. We must care of the land because without it we would have never become. - This work represents the power of the Womb - our Mother Earth. Red water is poured over her, it trickles down the channels, and slowly drips into the masculine vase beneath, once it is full the cycle is repeated.
