This is the most recent collection of pieces from an ongoing body of work titled “Notebook Series” in which I recreate my notebook pages in cast porcelain. Paper is a material I associate with the recording of our thoughts and questions; fleeting notes and scribbles that often fill the periphery of our lives, and ultimately capturing traces of ourselves over time. By recreating my notebook pages in porcelain, I hope to give a sense of permanence to these fleeting tactile experiences in a post-digital age. The imagery is autobiographical, including sketches from the studio, as well as commercial floral decals from my time teaching ceramics in Jingdezhen, China. I am interested in the relationship of seemingly unrelated marks, with digital imagery often encroaching upon the hand-drawn elements. Like our own mutable sense of memory, disparate imagery might overlap and the focus can shift from crisp to blurry, and the content may range in degrees of coherence.
