‘Possible Fragments’ is a collection,like a ceramic puzzle, of fragment-like forms leaning into one another in pairs. The complimentary thin shapes are fitted together, serrated edges meeting but not exactly marrying up. Some of these couples are two successive casts from the same mould while others are pairs drawn from two different ones, thus accentuating the lopsided or asymmetric aspect of the pieces. The porcelain is tinted using coloured stains, each piece polished, decorated high fired and then assembled. The shards,that we perceive as incomplete or fragmented are pieced together and delicately organised like artifacts. The pieces portray a simple vocabulary; two basic slip-cast shapes leaning together in an almost natural way. The spectator mentally, consciously or subconsciously,tries to reconstruct what would have been the original form of these objects. In some respects they are like remains that move beyond their original unfragmented state, evolving into something new, attaining a whole new aesthetic.
