Product description
My work is about nature and our relationship with it. The wild has always been a basis for cautionary tales, stories to guide our morality and imaginary worlds, I am just continuing this tradition, telling my story in clay. I use day to day items to sit my creatures on, making them almost domesticated, some stand alone as creatures in their own right or I model from observations. But there will be a story and it will involve us both.
Background Information about Beverley Seth
I make pots inspired by nature and our involvement with it.
I live and work in Sheffield and I think it influences me in the things I make. Sheffield is a city but crammed with green spaces, big parks, tree lined streets and little envelopes of wild hidden here and there. So this is where I see the most regular sightings of nature and wildlife. Not so much rolling hills but trees, birds and people.
Running through everything I make is a story; songs, old folktales, animal legends and things I just make up as I walk places. This then finds its way onto boxes, jars, whatever I can adapt and then just tiny bird models. I love decorating pieces so will always try to just add another leaf, a clump of berries or carve the surface. More nature, more fun.
