Oz Podz, Julie Shepherd, ca. 2000s
SRAG collection.
Julie Shepherd is a ceramic artist from bayside Brisbane. She creates exquisite functional and sculptural artworks using pierced and translucent fine porcelain clay. Her works express the fragility life.
Oz Pods are inspired by the natural environment – both its precarious balance and inherent resilience. Julie’s practice of piercing objects has resulted from observing nature’s lacelike structures through an electron microscope.
This work won the 2002 Stanthorpe Arts Festival ceramics prize and is part of the permanent collection.
