Himmel Bjerget
Danish for 'Mountain to Heaven': An exhibition of works from my artist residency at the International Ceramic Research Center in Denmark.
I describe Skælskør, the town I was based in, as a heavenly place - the natural coastline, the history, the people & the Danish culture.
My sculptures incorporate elements of my Australian identity along with Scandinavian environmental flavours. The Brisbane river features as carvings on some pieces and also icons from Denmark such as the wind turbines, the kroner, viking symbols and swans. I was challenged to work with new clay and materials and to adapt to unique processes in woodfiring.
This experience was made possible by Arts Queensland and the Lord Mayor's Young & Emerging Artist Fellowship.
Launch is in conjunction with Harmony Day celebrations.
