Function critiques modern disposable culture, with each piece meticulously crafted to stand the test of time. Her studio embraces a zero-waste model cultivating recycled clay and locally sourced raw materials. Inspired by the natural world, Kate’s work ranges from her signature wheel-thrown pieces featuring colourful palette of personal glaze recipes. Geometric design to her exploration of light and shadow through Neodymium glaze research. Her creations reflect a deep study of clay’s intimate, tangible qualities and its rich history’s dialogue with contemporary practices. Intuitive construction allows a response to materials creating objects that arise as evidence of the hand and

mind in motion.
