Remon Jephcott Ceramic Sculpture - teacup and saucer (fly)
Description:
The traditional afternoon tea, as popularised by Victorian women, provided a setting for intimate social engagement. Inspired by this ritual, Remon Jephcott finds that the teacup is imbued with femininity, revealing a relationship between gender and object: characteristics such as delicacy and fragility with a precious quality.
The respectability that was a moral necessity for Victorian women, was not always upheld within their society, which Remon has subtly referenced in her teacups.
Remon Jephcott has a ceramics studio in Truro, Cornwall where she creates her earthenware clay sculptures using crackle and barium glazes to echo age and decay followed by decals and lustre firings.
Price: £245
