Porcelain, with its fine texture, purity and whiteness, allowed Peter to explore relationships between form and surface in a way that was more rewarding than with any other clay. Wheel-thrown vessel forms offered infinite opportunities for subtle variations, but his particular concern, while attempting to achieve harmony and balance in the work, was to express his feelings for the natural world through the positive radiation of light and colour.
Hiro was born in Fukushima, Japan. Due to her father’s work commitments, Hiro had a peripatetic childhood. The constants in her life were her grandmother and being close to nature. However, she was dismayed later on to find that the traditional old buildings from her childhood walks with her grandmother had been demolished. Driven by sadness and nostalgia at the loss of her childhood environment/world in Japan, Hiro creates a link between the present and the past from her memories and imagination.
