Alexandra Standen is an Australian artist who explores the potential of clay as a ceramic form; subverting the long-held association between ceramics and utilitarian function. Standen makes things with her hands. The repetitive gesture of ‘pinching’ her hand-built forms is as much conceptual as it is an act of realisation. The conversation between materiality and form is ever evolving with intuition and experimentation in equal parts leading to the creation of these forms.

Alexandra Standen from PINCH CERAMICS is a Sydney based ceramic artist currently undertaking a Masters by research at UNSW Art and Design. The premise of Alexandra's work is to bring into question the fragility of ceramic objects, speaking to the process of making work in porcelain as well as ‘feeling uneasy’ around objects of fragile or precarious nature.
