Crafts CouncilDirectoryFiona ThompsonThe Altered AnimalAboutA new series loosely exploring how domesticated animals are portrayed and our complicated relationship with them. The ceramic world is deeply interlinked with food, and the portrayal of functional objects sentimentalising the view of meat/dairy products and farming scenes. At the moment the pieces reflect a discord, contrasts and opposites, precariousness and fragility. Altering/manipulating forms, cutting through the surfaces and distorting them and layering up different surface combinations.
