Laura Plant
Ceramics
My work focuses on the balance between beauty and function, material and process. All my designs begin with the form; I love combing shapes and this playful, eclectic approach is the core of my practise. I combine traditional making techniques with digital design to bring a new interpretation to the ceramic heritage of my native Stoke-on-Trent. My work is made by slip-casting and finished with a wash of glaze, poured to accentuate the movement in the glaze and expose the beautiful hand polished bone china body. I want to elevate everyday functional forms to become something beautiful and precious..
