Thrown by Jo

Jo was born and raised by the ocean, and now living in Queensland, Australia. 

Her introduction to clay was in 2010 - the tactile nature of clay and the creative process; the concept, making, and finishing drew her in. 

Jo has always found beauty in small details and repetition - a collector of seemingly useless objects gathered over the years.  Inspired by the simple beauty of landscape; natural or manmade. Visual sources such as architecture, the oceans, coastlines and geological markings, exploring the shifts and changes marked by time. This is her inspiration when designing and making tableware, and one-of-a-kind art pieces, with a focus on natural forms and modern design. 

Still as excited about clay as she was on that first day, and the fact that her work will be held and used and will stay in the main places of people’s lives, is inspiring.
