The First Step, Folds in Clay

By: Samantha Cragg

I've recently started a new project ready for an exhibition at The Kings Hill Gallery, Kent.

It's based on obesity and the way fat skin folds. I always update my website with images of developing projects and was surprised when my dad suggested my work looked like a sex aid and did i want to consider not having that photo on website. Dads may never understand :(

I'm an emerging applied artist, recent UCCA graduate. I've had four exhibitions since leaving and a few sales. I'm gradually building my network and challenging my favorite medium clay from my recently set up studio/shed. :) 

I look into discarded objects and rejected walls and surfaces as my inspiration. Texture is a massive thing for me so i never stop taking photos of interesting surfaces from skin to bark to a fly poster wall. 

I'm based in Kent so any artist looking to meet up - post me a note.
