Dennis Chapman Ceramics
I have been making ceramics for thirty-eight years and glass work has been the latest development in my journey as an artist. The interrelationship between glass and ceramic is organic – both begin with the earth. Both mediums are transformed by the artist and the fire which is, indeed, the final alchemist and arbiter.
When asked what is my major influence, I ponder where it all began and what has taken me this far with my art. My early mentor was the late renowned potter, Ivan Englund – both of us were great admirers of the Japanese Potters (considered the gurus of ceramic art).
Currently inspirations come from the natural world and my ongoing involvement and exposure to world ceramic and glass art.
I am continually fascinated by how, from natural elements and heat, glass and ceramic are created with their unique blends of colour and form. It is humbling to see this happen with the
guidance of my hands.

The Strutt Sisters
The Strutt Sisters
lightweight funky jewellery
Taking the knowledge of construction,colour and design from their extensive experience in artmaking, the Strutt Sisters also design accessories for everyday wear born from a frustrating lack of lightweight funky jewellery in the common marketplace.
Starting their designs seven years ago in their home town of Newcastle, N.S.W, their accessories are designed for everyday wear and each individual piece is finished to a very high quality using reproduction fabric with designs from the 1930’s – 1950’s, very thin ply and clear finish.
The sisters are strongly inspired by Scandinavia, a land they have traveled extensively and their pieces evoke the colour and pattern of bygone years and the clean, simple shapes prominent in great Scandinavian design.
