Abstract
This paper outlines my studio research, material investigations, processes, and the development of finished artworks in my thesis exhibition – Intimate. Immensity. This research, and the subsequent collection of ceramic sculptures, is a study of materiality and the body: how material processes echo personal transformation and growth. I discuss material engagement as essential research methodology in my experimental studio practice and the critical role of curiosity and play to the development of my unique visual language.
