These works evolved from my use of marbling and introducing different colours of clay. Sometimes the colours gelled, sometimes they didn’t, the success of the fit being purely subjective. I began to see this colour contrast as being symbolic of ideology or populations. A harmonious mix represents a discussion of ideas and cultures, whereas a clash implies voices shouting against each other. The stark contrast of these voices perhaps represents our social-media influenced, partisan world of today.
