Tracey Johnston is a ceramist whose inspiration is attributed to the landscape of the Ulster coastline. This coastline tells a fascinating story of years of exposure to change both through nature and human interaction. The artist makes vessels that seek to connect us with our natural surroundings in the area of discovery, survival and function.
Sustainability is not an afterthought in my practice; it is the foundation upon which each vessel, and exhibition narrative is built. Working in ceramics, I am acutely aware of the material and environmental footprint of craft. My response is to create with intention and not to create without knowing the items purpose. As an educator I work hard to pass on these principles
