This practice-led research explores my changing
relationship with process in developing contemporary ceramic
artwork, where the development of artwork begins with process as
a means of driving a fixed outcome, to becoming an outcome

open-ended process-driven methodology in creating artwork, the
experimental process can provide a broader platform for
unexpected possibilities to emerge and mature. The research
outcome has resulted in handbuilding three groups of artwork,
each of which invite the viewer to engage and interact
