Jill M Anderson - Artist Statement 2025

Since studying Ceramics at Holmesglen TAFE, Jill’s work has transitioned from whimsical social and political statements, to sculptural vessel forms enhanced by expressive clay surfaces.

Jill often creates lively and organic pieces, based on everyday objects such as jugs, ewers, vases and teapots. She enjoys the process of stretching and manipulating soft clay slabs and experimenting with coloured clays, inlay, slips, textures and various firing techniques.

This selection of works focuses on form and the vibrant glaze effects achieved through the Raku firing process.

Jill has been the recipient of numerous ceramics awards. She has taught art for over twenty years in secondary schools, and currently teaches ceramics at the Beaumaris Art Group and the Brighton Recreation Centre.
