Culture & Context
Julie’s ceramic work is inspied by her research completed during her MA Ceramics completed in 2016 at UCA Farnham. Julie explored the history touch in gallery and museum spaces – combining this with the fragility of the Jurasic Coastline in Dorset.
Process & Production
Julie Massie uses her slab roller to create sheets of porcelain clay that are repeatedly cut into strips, dried and fired to 1260 degrees in an electric kiln.
Sometimes the clay is coloured with stains and luster added to the edges. Once this stage is complete Julie can then start building her final outcomes by fixing the porcelain onto their final surface.
