Catherina is a practicing ceramist since 1996 and has specialised in wood firing her sculptural forms. She works with clay bodies based on the wild kaolin that is found on the South Peninsula where she lives, and her work is naturally often inspired by aspects of landscape and earth formations. Working with minerals and high temperature remains a field of continuous research. This includes formulating clay and glaze compositions, kiln construction and firing with wood.
