Closed Zigzag | Sarah Keirle
Ceramics - Raku
Height: 35cm. Width: 14cm.
Closed Zigzag has been designed and hand-sculptured to reflect the unique shape of native Western Australia flora Banksia grandis (Pulgarla, Bull Banksia) while also representing the natural disaster of bushfires that can be both devastating and of biological importance for regeneration and new life along the Darling Range Scarp.
Sarah Keirle, a Western Australian ceramicist, designs and hand-makes contemporary ceramic sculptures inspired by the local native flora. She is drawn to the seedpod’s varied forms. Many of these species require the intense heat and smoke of bushfires to assist with germination. This is reflected in her work through raku firing.
