Ceramic Colour Magic: Insights from Sara Moorhouse

Welcome to the Colour and Ceramics Podcast. I’m Bob Acton and I’m pleased to introduce you to the wonderful Sara Moorhouse.Her work on ceramics, colour and spatial perception began with a master’s degree at Cardiff, Wales and then onto a PhD to develop the ideas with more emphasis upon spatial colour phenomena on a three-dimensional form.She went beyond the basics of colour theory and tested out ideas on the conical form. She found that colours behave differently when viewed across three-dimensional space than on a two-dimensional surface, particularly on the inner bowl form where illusions can appear much stronger.And, Sara and I talked about a job she had with colour that will surprise you.You can find her on her website at saramoorhouse.com.
