Melanie Keevil makes ceramic wall panels and vessels in white stoneware clay that are layered with coloured slips and glazes to create rich, varied textures and contrasting surfaces and then, stoneware fired to 1260°. These abstract pieces are inspired by the colours, surface textures and weathered architectural details found in the hilltop towns and mountains of Provence. Other pieces are inspired by the rock formations and coastlines of the Cornish and Welsh landscapes.
Melanie works from her studio in Kings Heath and has exhibited in several solo shows in London and the Midlands as well as contributing to many group exhibitions.
