A Western Australian ceramicist who specialises in Raku-fired ceramic sculpture, Sarah Keirle was born in England and graduated with a BA Honours in 3D Design (Ceramics) from Staffordshire University. Sarah creates one-of-a-kind Raku ceramic sculpture inspired by the flora in the Western Australian bush. The hand-sculptured forms reflect the unique shapes of the native seedpods, and the primitive firing technique of Raku imbibes the characteristics and intensity of natural bushfires. These pieces embody the biological importance of regeneration and new life.
