Carol Forster
Artist’s Statement
“For the past 40 years I have been excited, even a little obsessed with the challenge of working with clay. I enjoy handling it, playing with it and trying out new possibilities. This love of experimentation has led me to create a versatile range of ceramic pieces, from multiple-fired metallic lustres to fine porcelain origami bowls. For me the process of making is equally as satisfying as the finished work.”
