Boulder Girls, 2021. Nine elements, all glazed ceramic.

Included in Kindred, solo exhibition at Arusha Gallery, Edinburgh, 2022. This ‘family’ of nine finely-nuanced ceramic heads developed out of genealogical research, particularly matrilineal, during the first Covid lockdown. The heads feature likenesses and are clearly affiliated, although are not portraits. Rather, they refer to a generic sense of female ancestry, kinship and the transmission of physical, psychological and life-pattern traits down the generations. Evocative of stones and shown in a circle, Boulder Girls blend human and non-human qualities.
