Louise Schrempft

Whilst some of Louise’s work is full of humour and playfulness, her focus is often on a single figure bearing witness. Some are resigned, some angry, and some seem to be waiting, watching the sunset and listening for a whisper on the evening breeze. Louise turns dull, mute clay into something which catches the light illuminating the human condition, allowing us to contemplate the marks and scars that life inflicts. Through all the unpredictability and randomness of the firing process, these figures survive and emerge perfectly flawed, unique and beautiful. What better expression could there be of the nature of hope?
