ARTIST'S STATEMENT

English born Sally Smith creates illuminative works which combine her studies of studio ceramics, fine art and textile making.

Sally's art is a celebration, is an exploration, of life through the imaginative force of vibrant colour, texture and form, placed in seemingly random configurations until closer inspection reveals a subterranean poetry of sensual cohesion.

Sally's work is, thus a visual metaphor of her relationship to the world. She expresses through her painting that exact fusion of spontaneity and purpose that she sees reflected in the beauty of nature and in the finest moments of cultural achievement.

"My art is something like the lens through which others can interpret my perceptual field. What I hope, is that such interpretation can offer an experience of beauty and of connection that so often goes unseen in the frenzy of modern life."

"If I can, through my work, summon a moments' reflection, a sense of presence, an awakening of the slumber of feeling, then I know my work has been worthwhile."
