    Description

    ‘Serpents/ Spirits’, is a one- off hand built stoneware vessel with hand-built details of figures emerging and retreating from a classic amphora. I’m interested in human representations of mythical and theological creatures throughout history, and how these take different forms through story telling and especially through architecture, with mythos inspired grottos and stone facades losing details over time and becoming vague, giving back the power of imagining these creatures to the human mind.

    Water tight.

    About Elizabeth Lewis Visit Showroom →

    Elizabeth Lewis is an Australian ceramicist, making hand built forms based aesthetically in ruin. She is influenced by the sculptural details present in architecture that allude vaguely to different mythologies, the feeling of discovery and the sense of curiosity that surrounds finding a partially eroded form. She completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts with Honours at UNSW in 2020, now working with functional art and collectable design. She recently undertook a residency at Guldagergaard International Ceramic Research Centre in 2024, and is now based in Rotterdam. @elew.is
