This beautiful 'A Path to Renewal,'is a handprinted collagraph print created with beautiful  textures and sustainable inks. The colours represent the origins of the raku fired clay, from which the bowl has been raised, as well as the glazes chosen by the potter.
 
The bowl itself depicts eucalypus leaves and dock stems, both of which I grew in the paddock outside of my studio.
 
The work is inspired by Kintsugi, the Japanese art of mending broken pottery with lacquer and powdered gold. It celebrates the beauty of imperfection by emphasizing fractures instead of hiding them. It celebrates the mend.
 
The gold here is hand applied in 24ct gold leaf, hand applied
