'These recent works have been the outcome of my explorations of my new surroundings in the Victorian Goldfields and I have used materials from various disused mining sites and processed them to use as oxides, slips and glazes, as well as incorporating rocks and clay into the clay body. The making of this new work has required a deeper engagement, not only with my surroundings but also with my own making practice.’ - Laura Veleff
