Views of The South, Wobble Sculpture

Katie Moore is an artist working with clay and paint. She discovered her preferred way of making while working remotely in a makeshift studio, where the freedom of coiling by hand allowed space for reflection. Coiling offers a flexible approach to making and enables the creation of both open and enclosed sculptural vessels.

Drawing on a background in illustration and an ongoing interest in stage sets and landscapes, Katie conceives each piece as both vessel and prop. Each series of work is informed by a particular place, drawing on photographs, sketches and collected objects as points of reference. Sketches, made by hand and digitally, form the basis of her ceramic work, which develops through layers of underglaze and slip in a process she describes as ‘an ongoing experiment’.

Her practice extends beyond clay to include painting, continuing an exploration of colour and composition. Drawing remains central to both disciplines, with recurring forms and landscapes appearing across ceramic and painted works. Her work is exhibited and sold through galleries across the UK and Los Angeles.
