As a small child Pam was fascinated by ancient artefacts in her local museum, especially the Egyptian sarcophagus of Lady Tahathor, and this love of past cultures has continued to inspire and influence the development of her works.
She still spends time musing in museums looking at costumes, armour, fabric, artefacts. Gathering this information to combine into a finished piece, in the same way one might construct an essay.
Each piece is Individually hand built in porcelain or stoneware. Every pot is unique. The clay rolled out flat before being built up, stretched and squeezed into shape to take on its own character and quality. Gold and silver embellish alongside cruder surfaces. A pieces can be fired three, four or five times during its development.
Her technique and designs are her own, demonstrating a dedication to her art of the last forty years as a ceramic artist.
She says that although influence might be ancient, she hopes the work is modern and contemporary.
Over the past 39 years Pam's work has been included in many exhibitions throughout GB and abroad; a collection bought by Liberty's, London: exhibitions in Open Eye Gallery, Edinburgh: Cecelia Coleman Gallery, St. Johns Wood: The Crypt-St Paul's, the Barbican and shown in France, Germany and the USA, with a large collection of 'coffee and tea sets' ordered for Saudi Arabia.
