Cathy's Art Diary

Lovely exhibition at the Contemporary Ceramics Centre of work by Halima Cassell. These ceramic works were very sculptural and are made by carving from a block of dry clay. There were interesting geometric patterns making plaques, bowls and vases. As they looked so tactile it was nice to be able to handle them and feel the clean lines but rough texture. I particularly liked a piece called Vaulted Keep, which was a round bowl shape with a deep square, flower like interior.
