Georgina Proud is a ceramic artist who places a focus on materiality, creating experimental ceramic vessels with inclusions of glass and other found materials. Her work investigates how these materials react to the ceramic and firing processes.
She works primarily with wheel-thrown forms exploring methods of collage and assemblage to create distinct sculptural vessels. She enjoys playing with the tension between the functional and sculptural, making work that blurs the lines between the two. Her practice places an emphasis on glaze development with a focus on new textures to add to her ever-expanding glaze library. Her work explores the themes of femininity, fragility, and strength through bold curves and textured surfaces that are at once both soft and robust."

Flux

Flux is an exploration of materiality that investigates the chemical reactions and transformation of materials that occur during the ceramic-making and firing process. These works combine a range of materials and techniques that I have been experimenting with over the past four years including the incorporation of novel materials, such as sea glass, seeds, and perlite, into different clay bodies. The interplay of the introduced materials and the clay creates a unique process of development.
