Odd Pots

Hand formed sculptural vessels

Materials:  Rush

Sarah gathers rush where it’s found abundance from her direct locality in Buckinghamshire . After a period of drying in her Studio it’s ready to use in her practice.

Sarah coils and hand forms the brittle rush with thread with the addition of locally sourced beeswax to create tactile contemporary coiled vessels that depict organic movement. Depending on scale some vessels can take months to complete.

Debuted at Future Icons 2025 as part of London Craft week
