caption: Elle Maxwell - Working with LLL since 2019 My practice marries parian with blown glass to create functional objects and lighting. I am a slip caster and mould maker, led by the ceramic making process. My method consists of casting in layers to create a delicate terrazzo surface, hand forming and carving. I am inspired by simple materials, clean lines and beautifully finished surfaces. Textures of natural patterning and rock, softly faceted and tactile, have underpinned designs of my ceramics. I am motivated by sensitive interior design and how craft can enhance and enrich a space both in public and at home. I am interested in the space between commercial and craft boundaries and my collections strive to combine artwork, craftsmanship, and functionality.
