Sue Mundy
Working with clay allows Sue a secondary voice, a line of communication through form. Sue trained at North Staffordshire Polytechnic, 1983 - 1986 and has enjoyed creating in clay ever since. She is now based in Reading. A constant influence in her work is the natural world. This current work explores the shapes and surface textures found in her observations of trees and bones. Through daily walks in local woods, Sue is constantly surprised and delighted by the curious shapes of felled trees and the wonderful nodules which grow from them.
The slow and repetitive handbuilding techniques she uses to create her pieces offer a considered way to develop her work as each piece calmly grows. Sue’s work has been exhibited widely through galleries and exhibitions including Bonhams contemporary auctions, Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Beaux Arts-Bath, Cambridge Contemporary Art and Contemporary Ceramics-London. Sue is a selected member of The Craft Potters Association.
“Nature is a major source of inspiration to me. I combine the gentleness of undulating landscapes, the turmoil of the sea and the soft sensuality of the human form into my work.”
