NANETTE LEDWITH - BIOGRAPHY

ARTIST STATEMENT

Nanette Ledwith is an artist potter who specialised in making individual one off plates and bowls, many of which are wall pieces and may be viewed as paintings.

Essentially, she is an image maker who draws into and paints onto a clay surface. Each piece is hand crafted and is based on drawings made in her rural environment. The colours and textures reflect the Irish landscape. Natures irregular asymmetrical harmony and seasonal moods are captured in these spontaneous and painterly works.

After completing her MA at University of Ulster, her work first achieved a first prize in ceramics at RDS National Crafts Competition and Travelling Exhibition 2003 and many pieces are in private collections including the ESB permanent art collection.
