Process and material sit at the core of Daisy’s practice. She is interested in the life cycle of the objects she makes and what it means to labour over an object with a short material permanence. Her childhood surroundings inform her work through the merging of memories of both the land and sea. Daisy has an increasing interest in the material quality of clay and what can be achieved through the manipulation of its raw state. Air dying the clay slowly and leaving it unfired allows Daisy to reclaimed and reused the clay once the objects have broken or become redundant.
