Sarah Dunstan
WE ARE delighted to bring you three new bowls by Sarah Dunstan. Sarah is another potter who lives and works in St.Ives Cornwall. Born in Helston Cornwall she like Amanda Brier went to Falmouth School of Art & Design and after obtaining a BTEC Diploma: then went on to study at Cardiff with Geoffrey Swindell, she graduated in 1992 with a B.A. (Hons) in 3D Design Ceramics.

Sarah writes about her work,
"I collect images, such as the shape of railings in a hidden doorway in St. Ives or writing on an antique glass bottle. I use my sketchbook to draw and paint these impressions but also as a scrapbook. Feathers, fabric and packaging are glued in next to photographs. These photographs are fragmented memories of places I've visted, a close up detail of a Greek sign post perhaps or advertising on a French café wall.

I decorate a rolled out sheet of clay by using various techniques including painting and printing with coloured slips. The pieces are then put together using paper templates to create the final form - similar to patterns that my mother used as a dressmaker when I was child. I am fascinated by collections of objects: from the very small and personal - scent bottles, the mundane - sardine tins, to large architectural forms such as Gaudi buildings".

All the bowls are stoneware and are glazed and decorated using porcelain slips.
