Jade Paton creates contemporary sculptures out of clay. Her main source of inspiration is the ancient vessel, as well as forms in nature, architecture, design and contemporary art. She pieces various elements together to create unique and other worldly designs. During the building process the shape mutates and evolves into something unexpected. The surfaces of the work can be raw and natural, as if they have emerged from the earth, or saturated and colour driven. The sculptures feel ancient and futuristic at the same time - a juxtaposition of the old and the new.
