NANCY FROST
"Sailing on Memory's Sea"
I produce functional ware as well as work that is more expressive in nature. Making pottery that people choose to bring into their daily lives is deeply satisfying. I believe that using an individually crafted dish at the dinner table can transform a meal from the everyday to the particular.
My sculptural work incorporates found objects – often driftwood – with individually modelled ceramic birds and nest forms. As one living far from the place of my birth, I find potent symbolism in the way birds make their homes from the materials they find in their environment.
