Textural Explorations

Lillie's Textural Explorations celebrate sensory engagement and tactile discovery. By manipulating clay surfaces to mimic natural rhythms, textures, and movements, she crafts ceramics that invite closer interaction.

The intricate interplay of glaze and form creates meditative experiences, encouraging viewers to engage thoughtfully through both sight and touch.

Progress

Medium: Earthenware, Bmix, raku fired

Dimensions: 11" x 5.5" x 2.5" inches (27.94 cm x 13.97 cm x 6.35 cm)

‘Progress’ is an ode to the many paths we can take to grow, embodying the slow, layered evolution of both natural landscapes and personal journeys. Rather than building up with coils, the ridges are meticulously carved, allowing the form to emerge through subtraction —mirroring how time, experience, and change shape us.

The raku firing process further emphasizes transformation, with iridescent flashes and delicate crackle glazes reinforcing themes of impermanence and resilience. This piece continues my exploration of ceramics as both a sculptural and sensory experience—an object that rewards close engagement, shifting with light, touch, and perspective.
