Artist Lisa Stevens creates stunning ceramic sculptures that mimic organic patterns found in nature. Her decorative objects use a variety of small tools to achieve the clear structure of her pieces.
Stevens lives in Bristol and worked as a sculptor for Aardman Animations before starting to create ceramic art. Now the British artist draws inspiration from coral reefs, flowers, geology, mosses and lichens to create his own ceramic pieces, which vary in color and design. In addition, Stevens often uses high-fired porcelain clay, which causes the elaborate sculptures to become translucent when exposed to light.
Among her pieces are shell-like bowls with various floral and aquatic forms painted in bright greens and oranges. Stevens also created more sculptures based on organs like the heart and lungs, filled with tiny holes and shadows. Stevens said, "I hope to highlight the impact of human activities on the environment. Especially how each of our small actions can add up to make a big difference."
