Starting her journey with clay in mid 2019, Georgia pulled on knowledge gained from a lifetime spent in creative pursuits including painting, sculpture, drawing and mosaics and a formal education in graphic design specialising in Illustration.
Using clay as her main medium, her sculptures as well as her smaller collection of functional ware draw on the theme of ‘Ocean’ that has been a constant backdrop in Georgia’s life. Each piece is hand built using a variety of traditional techniques and tools, and enhanced with matt hand mixed glazes and commercial underglazes.
“In addition to the influence of the sea, Georgia draws inspiration from her deep and enduring love of children's literature and illustration. Her characters, with their wind swept beards and smoking pipes seem to have dragged themselves straight from the pages of a Herman Melville novel…”
For most of 2023, Georgia has been expanding into the world of public commission art, creating a 3m tall sculpture that is to be included in the subsea sculpture park being installed under the heritage Busselton Jetty.
