Sharon Alpren is a ceramicist based in the Macedon Ranges, near Melbourne, Australia, originally from the UK with a background in textiles. Sharon works with richly coloured and textured stoneware clays, using a combination of handbuilding and wheel throwing techniques, to create functional and sculptural pieces for the home.
Sharon's words - My work is process driven. I am fascinated by the nature of ceramic materials and allow the unique characteristics of the clay, glaze minerals and fire to guide me. I am drawn to strong, simple, expressive forms and embellishments that allow the essence of the raw and earthy materials to shine through.
Approximately 8cm high and 9.5cm diameter. Holds about 350ml. Each piece is individually made so size and markings vary slightly.
