Abstract
This paper outlines the themes and concepts behind the ceramic sculptures produced during my time at the University of Manitoba as a Master of Fine Art candidate. The series of work tackles the notion of plant and human hybridity when the microscopic becomes colossal. By highlighting unique building methods along with the use of colour inversion, this paper explains the connections to the biological influences within the sculptures such as, bio-mimicry, biomorphic abstraction, gut health and alternate world-building.
