Sian’s work is currently represented at Nolan on Lovel Gallery (Katoomba) and 775 Art and Craft Gallery Red Hill Victoria. ”Working with clay has never ceased to interest me with every kiln fired there is always something new to discover and improve upon. I am inspired by the surrounding of Flora and the local dragonfly in my area of the Blue Mountains. I also am interested in the Architecture of Islam, the repetitive patterns that are adorned on their buildings give many possibilities to follow. At the present I am fascinated by translucency and the way light can illuminate through the porcelain. By carving through the clay I am creating layers of varying light that bringing warmth to the work.” Sian Thomas Contact: siangthomas@gmail.com phone: 02 4782 5440 mailto:siant@dodo.com.aushapeimage_2_link_0
