Glazed earthenware, 12 x 26 x 27cm
Emerging artist Alice Macdonald’s artistic practice is informed by a broad range of influences including historical literature, memories, and fairytales. As well as painting from classic films on-screen, she works directly from life, drawing from the human figure and studying the tangle of flora in her grandmother's garden in Oxfordshire.
The malleable qualities of working in ceramic relate closely to the expressive, dynamic painting style for which Alice is best known. The resulting works - including painted bowls, and piggy-topped butter dishes– are gently surreal, with a sense of the theatrical. This ‘Garden Bowl’ has a terracotta-coloured base and is the largest of these new pieces by the artist. Decorated with vibrant flowers it playfully references the blue and white palette used in Chinese decorative pottery.
All of Alice's hand-made ceramic works are signed, glazed, and food-safe. They should not be put in the microwave or dishwasher. Please note that we are offering central or south east London collection only for all purchased ceramics by Alice, to ensure that they reach each purchaser safely.
