Internationally acclaimed ceramicist, Stephen
Bowers presents a flock of birds across a series of plates, portrayed in
bright colours against complex, fragmented backgrounds inspired by designs from
ceramics, engravings and textiles. With ornate patterning and inspired
by the history of art and design, these
works speak to the idea of pattern-in-nature and nature-in-pattern and reflect
on the tensions of humanity’s appropriation of the natural world for our own
use, the fragments representing this broken relationship.
