Emma Jimson — 'Ovo' Bowl in Smoke, 2024

Based on her family's farm in the Macedon Ranges of Central Victoria, Emma creates elegantly refined forms which delicately dance the seductive line between form and function. Her works firmly echo the power and beauty of the surrounding granite hills of the Taungurung peoples as she leans on the strength of porcelain and precision of her master mould making. She regularly holds workshops to share her skill and knowledge in the design, construction and utilisation of pottery plaster moulds and casting with porcelain slip bodies at "Pom-me-granite Studios" which she runs with her partner Jim, a bespoke carpenter.

We acknowledge the Taungurung people as the traditional owners and custodians of the lands on which we are privileged to live, learn and create. We pay our sincere respect to elders past and present and extend that respect to all First Nations Peoples today.
