Anna Gustafson's body of work reflects a diverse and inventive use of materials, a fascination with texture and a sense of adventure in colour.
Visual storytelling is the consistent thread that weaves through her collection, from raku to painting and even furniture. |
Anna takes great pleasure in balancing raku ceramics with painting. Texture and pattern are important elements to both, but the raku's unpredictable nature brings mystery and adventure; she enjoys not knowing quite what the end result will be. Painting of course allows greater control and is more immediate in terms of results. |
