Soon after
she came to this country in l966 Edith started pottery as a leisure
activity, which quickly became serious. Previous professional training
in Germany had been as a singer.
She works exclusively in Raku. Pots are functional, using wheel
and handbuilding methods. In Raku's postfiring process spontaneity
and chance co-operate with experience and technique, influencing
the pot at all stages.
Edith has been an active member of the Oxfordshire Craft Guild since
1983.
She works part time, sells from her own workshop, Guild and many
other exhibitions and is a founding member of the Craft
Gallery in Chipping Norton (run as a Co-operative with close links
to the Guild). |
