“In modern society, we buy so much but value so little. My ceramics aim to re-evaluate and challenge this notion.”
The discarded object; whether it be a vintage domestic item, a mudlarked find, even a piece of plastic packaging are all relevant to Rose’s creative process: to make comment on mass consumerism within contemporary society.
Rose has lived in Oxford for nearly forty years. Involved in ceramics since 1998, she graduated with a first-class B.A. in 2008. Since 2017, she has run pottery courses for Abingdon & Witney College in addition to independent workshops.
A selection of Rose's work was on show as part of Orna-Mantle-Pieces, a Staffordshire Pottery inspired show.
