Hybrids
I recently acquired a collection of vintage plaster moulds of animals and traditional figurines.
I have begun to explore the idea of taking the familiar and reworking them into a different narrative.
Each piece is cast in porcelain, cut, altered and pieces added then painted and glazed in different colours with mother o pearl and gold lustres added in a third firing.

Rabbit in the Headlights

The Fairy Queen
The Fairy Queen is the ruler of everything, there is much multi tasking involved wrangling the Pixies and placating the squabbles of the Townsfolk.
When I cast this mould I realised the figure had no arms so I had to give her some from a different piece. The base she is on has some lovely detail so I added some of my own hand made elements, the grass sprig, some wings and a crown. I wanted her underskirts to look like the night sky and her dress like a sunset over the land.
Porcelain cast in a vintage mould with additional elements. Hand painted with underglaze , mother of pearl and gold lustre.
