| ^Alex Standen in her studio at Sturt in Mittagong - explaining some new ideas and experiments... to a captive audience!^ |
This post is rather timely as I have just spent a magical week in a beautiful place called Sturt ,which is an art/craft/design centre in Mittagong, a town which is located in the Southern Highlands of Sydney.
I was there to teach a weaving/drawing/textile course.
And I was there, in part, because of this beautiful lady who introduced my work to the lovely people at Sturt.
Alex and I met while we were working at Object: Australian Design Centre a few years ago, and we've been great mates ever since. Alex is an amazing ceramic artist with an impressive cv for someone who recently graduated from The National Art School with a BA honours degree in ceramics.
Last month I had the privilege of visit Alex in her beautiful studios space at Sturt -
and these are a few of my photos from that trip.
I hope you enjoy this tiny tour of her studio.
And if you would like to know more about Alex you can visit find her on instagram...
and on the McLemoi Gallery website.
