BACKGROUND

BEVERLEY STERLING


Beverley is a visual ceramicist/graphic artist who produces short movies and animation and recently 'Urbanesque Jewellery'. She has exhibited her work in the UK, Zimbabwe and Senegal.


“I develop a lot of my experimental ideas using ceramics, photography and text from my surroundings, living and working in Nottingham (UK) and in the past, Zimbabwe and Senegal. My short movies sometimes involve people participating and exploring their cultural identities and this may involve a ceramic object or any item that has a particular significance which evokes a memory, a situation or experience(s)”

Sometimes we can take for granted what we see ahead of us and it's impact may just last for a moment. My ideas sometimes emerge slowly and it may take a while before I realise that what I initially saw may not be a reflection of what is really there and this can be disturbing.

The Pot

We shape clay into a pot
but it is the emptiness inside
that holds whatever we want

THOUGHT FOR THE MONTH

It is not your environment

It is not your history

It is not your education or ability

It is the quality of your mind that predicts

your future
