Jane Yarnall
I am lucky enough to have a lovely garden studio on a hill outside Bath, where I indulge my passion for sculpture and experimentation. Although my art practice started with clay, I am increasingly working with glass and still exploring ways to marry the two. With both ceramics and glasswork, I often seek to exploit the reactions that occur inside the kiln with the different chemicals in the glazes and glass and the variation of heat.
My portfolio ranges from small sale objects through to large outdoor sculpture. I am fascinated by the contrast between the seen object and what lies within, so often take inspiration from microscopic imagery in science and nature.
I have a M.A. Design (Ceramics) from Bath Spa University and was selected by the Craft Council in 2020 as an emerging talent. In addition to the Cotswold Sculptors Association, I am a member of the Contemporary Glass Society and Craft Potters Association.
