Louise Bell

Having initially studied Psychology and worked in Further Education Colleges, Louise Bell is inspired to explore ways that craft, and ceramics in particular, can investigate emotional and social issues. Her preference for making project-based narrative work that communicates ideas. Each project explores a theme or a question, and each piece of work is unique. She uses various hand-building and glazing methods for each piece. Each sculpture goes through approximately four firings. The last firing is the gold lustre and decal firing.
