gellyvieve represents my exploration of clay as a maker. It is a space where imagination is uninhibited fuelled by the inner world of a child who started ceramics at the age of 10.

Embedded intimately within our material histories and daily interactions, ceramics have persisted and endured through time. As a material that evokes a deep sense of sensory familiarity, Reciproco is a pair of interactive ceramic trinket trays designed to explore the senses of touch and skin.
When one piece is touched, the other piece warms up, as if transferring one's warmth from one piece to another. The work merges craft and innovation by integrating circuits within the ceramics. The surface glaze, formulated from glass waste, is enhanced with a visual cue created using thermochromic paint applied through sandblasting. This subtly changes color with increasing heat emanating from electricity pulsing through the ceramic bodies, heightening sensory engagement.
By challenging the boundaries between communication devices and everyday objects, the work aims to bridge the emotional and physical gaps prevalent in our current digital communications.
