Phil Brooks: Lift - Soar - Glide - Drift

Featuring four major new works which once-again reveal Phil Brooks to have a wonderful lightness of touch, the aptly titled works (Lift, Soar, Glide, Drift) are imbued with the suggestive presence of birds and the sensations of flight. Accompanied by suites of recent works where Brooks explores the formalities of shape, functionality, surface, and discrete, restrained patterning, this grouping of carefully selected works openly acknowledges the emergence of an important new voice in New Zealand ceramics.
