biography
Anne uses meditation and breath techniques to make her wheel thrown pots. Her glazes are handmade and reduction fired in a gas kiln. The resulting pots are calm and quiet pieces that invite contemplation. Highly influenced by years spent in Japan, Anne's focus is on form, simple glazes and the notion that her ceramic pieces will be combined with food. Each vessel is unique and groupings resemble families rather than sets. Anne sells her pots at the Blue Mountains Cultural Centre shop, the National Trust shop and from exhibitions and her studio in Katoomba (by appointment). Her breath/pottery workshop is also available to potters from beginner to advanced level. In this three hour workshop, Anne teaches breathing techniques that assist students to centre both themselves and their pots on the wheel, to maintain a sense of flow, and to still both their mind and their clay. Workshops are run from her studio in Katoomba and are for a maximum of two people. These workshops can be extended to three or five days with accommodation for one person in a self contained studio in the garden, providing an opportunity to deep dive into breath techniques and pottery in an environment steeped in creativity. Whether you would like to purchase a pot or participate in a workshop, Anne welcomes you to get in touch and visit her studio.
