I find the behind the scenes of the ceramic process to be just as valuable to the finished product, though I admit I might be biased. In the studio is where nothing is permanent allowing instinct and passion to drive my artistic choices. These ideas bubble up to the surface every now and again inspiring new avenues for the future.

✦ BIO ✦
Aly is a Ceramic artist currently living and working in the GTA surrounded by fellow friends & makers. Inspired by the narratives we create, and how the stories we tell warp our reality she works in clay to make those fleeting moments permanent, locked in time. As a devoted philosopher she spends much of her time trying to push how many layers of meaning she can add before it becomes too much. She hasn't found the answer.With a fondness for ornamentation she blends illustration and traditional ceramics. Knights, dragons and unicorns spill out of the space in between story and reality meeting here in physical form. Using these archetypes as vessels to explore control, isolation, desire, and religion, she creates illustrated sculptures and tile pieces that examine how these themes manifest materially and conceptually.
