Echoes of Past Stories Klair Bauly
Klair Bauly
“I place an emphasis on working with natural materials whenever possible. Using paint made from pure minerals which are light fast and archival. It is important to me to create art without causing environmental impact, both as a working artist and for the future of the artwork.
Being in nature is a constant inspiration, walking the Suffolk coastline and using field formations to inform abstract paintings, I paint feeling the fragile tension between inner and outer worlds, expressing memory, longing and quiet stillness.
Balance, harmony & simplicity portraying a sense of calm contemplation is at the heart of my ethos and creating art without harming the environment.” Klair.

“I am a local ceramicist working form my garden studio in the heart of rural Suffolk.
Working primarily with stoneware drawing inspiration from from nature and organic forms. My focus is vases, objet d’art and tableware, sculptural pieces are designed to sit beautifully in the home, whether as standalone forms or in everyday use.
My practise embraces Wabi-Sabi, celebrating imperfection and the quiet beauty of the handmade. I have a restrained approach to glazing to allow each piece to speak for itself. I also use oxides and raku which create depth, texture and individuality.No two pieces are ever the same.” Kim.

“I combine my love for nature and my aesthetic sensibility to masterfully arrange flora into exquisite compositions.
With sustainability and zero-waste being at the centre of my practice, I grow almost all of my flowers, or forage , source them locally, occasionally incorporating unusual materials in my contemporary arrangements.
My background in art and design lends itself perfectly to my current Sogetsu ikebana practice which elevates the aesthetic output in my displays.
Being a professional gardener in my day job, I like to work in harmony with the seasonal changes and natural cycles that provide the materials for my art. I also incorporate organic gardening practices to grow my plants. From bridal bouquets and wedding decor, to giant seasonal wreaths in window displays, I enjoy what nature provides, creating one of a kind sustainable fresh or dried florals for any occasions.” Olga
