MORAIG MCKENNA<br />

Moraig’s practice is informed by the long and variant history of ceramics for use. The<br />

processes and results of wood firing excite me and she draws inspiration from wood<br />

fired ceramic traditions in cultures such as Japan, Korea and China.<br />

This body of work work is work hand built using slabs. Moraig loves to play with<br />

functional elements like rims, spouts, handles and feet. The surfaces are textured<br />

to provide more variation for the interplay of wood and salt, glaze, clay and slip. The<br />

work is then subltly embellished with enamels and metallic lustres.<br />

“It is important to me that through the construction the imprint of my hand is<br />

evident in the finished work.These marks become a point of connection between my<br />

hand as the maker and the hand of the imagined user.”<br />
