Alyson is a Sydney based ceramic artist whose light sculptures illuminate the delicate patterns and textures in nature.

After completing a Design degree at the College of Fine Arts (now UNSW Art and Design), Alyson worked with Angela Mellor whose paper clay technique was instrumental to the evolution of her work. Alyson uses a combination of slip casting and hand building techniques with Bone China. Thinly cast forms are translucent when lit, a process which allows her to make multiples while ensuring each piece is unique.

Alyson believes that nature is the ultimate designer and her work has a strong environmental focus underpinned by an ecocentric worldview.

In her work, light represents the primordial essence moving through all of life. It is a reminder of our interconnectedness and interdependence, that we are part of nature. 

Alyson hopes that through remembering humanity's deep connection with nature we will honor our responsibility to it.
