Zoë Slater is a ceramic artist whose work explores tactile, sculptural forms using dark clay bodies and reactive glazes. Drawing inspiration from plant biology and the natural environment, Slater uses the raw, earthy qualities of materials, allowing their inherent properties to shape the final form.
Anthesis explores the concept of unfurling, inspired by plant biology, where flowers open to allow pollination. Beginning with a thrown form, augmented slabs were applied intuitively, allowing the final form to evolve organically. The piece embodies transformation, highlighting the delicate balance between structure and growth, and suggesting a shift from a protective state to openness. This tension evokes both vulnerability and hope, capturing the continuous rhythm of change.
