Degree Show Ceramics 2016

Title of Project: Projection


I originally looked at the degrading of Victorian fan light windows on Georgian buildings in and around Limerick city. My ceramic pieces will explore their use of over exaggerated decorative elements. Remembering the original inspiration from my sketchbook work, and the notion of the fanlight as a primary decorative element, through clay experiments, I aim to transfer that idea into pieces of work that represent the decorative factor rather than the light, and then to transfer these ideals on to the wall, also incorporating the breaking of the original crescent form into geometric forms. It is my hope to recreate these designs using an artistic reminder of the lost beauty of a once beautiful city.
