'Fragility'

Series of ceramic sculptures

2016

An abstract representation of the vulnerability, mental wellbeing and support of children.

​

My concern throughout this collection was how children can be ostracised by society, and not recognising when actions are negative or abusive. I researched the natural adaptions children undergo to protect themselves from harm; aggression, isolation, wariness, an inability to communicate. 

​

Using porcelain to signify the fragility of children's minds, while the threads represent the more impressionable and innocent side of children and how they overall need a balance of nurturing, protection and freedom.
