This group of works explores the image of nature. The plate and tile are favourite ceramic forms for artists to use as a 'canvas' for painting, printing and drawing. Here Steph has coloured porcelain using oxides to give pale grey, teal and wedgewood backgrounds for the silkscreen printed surface. This use of silkscreen printing direct onto clay is a method of working which retains the qualities of this tradtional print technique within each piece.
