Brian Tew says; “My ceramics, sculptures and mixed media work are mainly unplanned, intuitive and eclectic. The work is formed in stoneware and earthenware. Some are fired with glazes and oxides in a gas reduction kiln or an electric kiln, others are fired in a raku kiln or by using an earth pit firing. The piece is then assessed and if necessary, I then add other mixed media to the ceramic sculpture to complete the work and present it on a display base.
I rarely plan my art work or sketch out a preliminary design; I just start with the raw clay and let the material take me along the creative path. Sometimes it works and other times I struggle but keep adjusting and redesigning as I go until I’m satisfied that I’ve achieved something worth exhibiting.
The only aim is to create a piece of art that has an aesthetic appeal with a suggestion of antiquity and sculptural form. The work is purely decorative and only requires a place for it to be displayed and for the owner’s imagination to give it life”.
