About me

I am Lea, an artist and small batch maker. I create works using ceramics, found materials, textiles and paper. My practice is concerned with our natural and built environment and how we can bring care to the forefront of our thinking. I am interested in places and materiality that is connected to that place, sometimes working with wild clay. Working with the materials of a place I explore the impact of extreme weather and a changing climate.

I am working towards completion of a Masters of Contemporary Art Practices, finsihing mid 2024, at ANU School of Art and Design. My work is informed by this and my background as a Landscape Architect. I also create earthy reduction fired functional ware over at Mud Dept. I teach workshops in ceramics from my home studio in Braidwood NSW and as a visiting artist.
