Porcelain Mug 1
Porcelain Mug - 4” x 3” x 3”
"The pots I make are an exploration of how sculptural form, function and simplicity can exist in the everyday, utilitarian object. The soft slab, hand building process is a direct reference to the construction of old-timey, worn tin ware. Surface created through wood firing helps evoke a sense of nostalgia, creating a dialogue of memory between user and maker through everyday use."
Heather is fortunate to wood-fire her work with Bruce Cochrane, renowned potter and former head of Ceramics at Sheridan College (Oakville). She is one of a new generation of Canadian potters who incorporate traditional techniques with contemporary ideas.
