Member's Gallery

Born in Prague, where I studied medicine and worked as an anatomist. In 1985 I moved to Britain. In 1987 I graduated from Croydon College of Art and Design and set up my first studio in London with the help of a Crafts Council Setting Up Grant. My work is figurative, narrative and expressive. My vessels are inspired by stories and themes. I draw on personal experiences, past and present with a view to reflect the spontaneity of ordinary human life. I make large handbuilt clay vessels, painted with coloured slips, oxides and stains. I am trying to create tension between the outside and inside surface in order to give the whole piece another dimension. I have exhibited in Britain, Europe and USA. My work is in private and public collections including Musee National de Ceramique, Paris. I like working to commission.
