Blandine Anderson

Click image to open
Blandine Anderson’s ceramics reveal her fascination with natural forms.  Taking as a starting point a particular leaf, seed or sweep of ploughland, she finds its echoes elsewhere - in a bone, a wing, even in electrical circuitry.  In the process of sketching and maquette-making the forms interpenetrate and become abstracted.  A seed masquerades as a bird, or vice versa. 

 

The pieces are unique, hand-built stoneware or porcelain.  Colour and texture are added using porcelain slips.  Oxides and glazes are applied after biscuit firing and fired a second time.  A third firing is done for any on-glaze enamel and metallic lustre. 

 

A potter for some thirty years, Blandine lives in North Devon and is a member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen.
