Amy Cooper: Maker in Focus

A festive exhibition of beautiful handmade porcelain lights by artist Amy Cooper. Amy's work addresses the fragility and transience of life and the natural world through the transformative properties of light on porcelain. She continues to explore a monochromatic spectrum that is created through the use of textures, variation in thickness and diffusion. The work is slip cast porcelain, each piece individually altered, either through manipulation when plastic or painstakingly masked and sandblasted at bisque. Amy's porcelain range includes table lamps, lampshades and tea-light holders.
