Schwartz Clay | 51cm x 28cm
Within this body of work, sculptor Kirsty Adams explores provenance and sense of place. These pieces represent a specific stretch of the Northumberland coastline with a focus on Cullernose Point between Howick and Craster, where the artist visited with her father in childhood. Working directly with the clay in the landscape, experimenting with sculptural aspects of the moon jar form, combined with the Japanese technique of kurinuki (hollowing out and allowing the jar to emerge from the rock), Kirsty encourages fluidity and movement as an expression of the molten lava rock formations of Cullernose Point.
This collection evokes a sense of balance, each moon jar eventually finding the rock which offers it equilibrium and a stable resting place.
