Clare de Lune Ceramics

I began working with clay five years ago – in part as an antidote to big architectural projects that take years to deliver, in part as a means to discovering my own creative voice.

Thrown on the wheel using porcelain and stoneware, my work celebrates the pleasures of our everyday lives —of food, and flowers, of tea and time with loved ones. My explorations are influenced in particular by modernism, and more generally by the Taoist idea of ‘wu wei’ where we act in accordance with the natural flow of things, without force or striving. Often I have to do less and keep letting go, and then I can allow myself to create pared-back forms whose quiet presence is in some way energised by a contrasting texture, or an unexpected movement.

It’s late summer 2025 and following two successful exhibitions I am heading back to my sketch book, my scrap book and my wheel. Time to play and give space for something to emerge that I don’t yet know.
