Language of Clay Series - Traces

By  Kate Haywood 2019 - 2020

From the Language of Clay Series: Traces ‘Kate’s work may appear strangely familiar as you may sense the form of a horn drinking cup or a colour palette resonant of Elizabethan tapestries. The surfaces which her work is placed reverberate with shadows of human things. Her objects are made at the edge of her consciousness, in the place where fiction and truth collide.’ Sharon Blakey
