Our group explored the work of US artist, Courtney Mattison. In her large-scale ceramic works, Mattison communicates the degradation of coral reefs due to climate change. We individually explored the hand-building techniques of Mattison to create our own small piece of ‘coral reef’, choosing to either add gloss glazes or leave the surface bare.
