Description
A ceramic sculpture by studio ceramicist Peter Hayes.
Peter Hayes (born 1946) is a contemporary sculptor now based in Bath, England, whose work is displayed in public locations including the UK, USA & Belgium.
The distinctive appearance of Peter Hayes ceramic works is partly a result of techniques such as Raku firing he employs but also reflects his habit of submerging pieces in the flowing river beside his studio, or sending them to Cornwall to be washed in the sea, for months at a time. The water washes minerals such as copper and metal oxides into the basic white clay with which Hayes works, creating a characteristic green-blue “blush” in his sculptures along with random elements that make every piece unique. The effect is to create objects that many feel look ancient and perhaps even a little alien. Hayes’ work is generally finished by waxing and polishing
