All the things I want to tell you, but I don't know how Bonnie Grace
18th April 2026 - 27th June 2026
Bonnie Grace is a multidisciplinary artist; working in ceramics, drawing, textiles, and printmaking. Her work is rooted in the domestic and the decorative, revolving around antiques. Her fascination with ceramics came from growing up with her mother selling antiques; with a house filled with a variety of patterns and shapes.
Bonnie uses continuous line drawings to start each project as a way to distance herself from the objects in order to dissect, explore, and interoperate them. Her ceramics are a personal take on commemorative ware and traditional ceramics. As Bonnie continues to make, she is forming my own version of a Welsh dresser collection, reflecting her Welsh heritage and her personal history. When working with clay, she struggles to think in 3D. From her wobbly line drawings, she uses clay slabs as if they were paper, creating 2D yet 3D forms. She uses her own coded language within the designs; inspired by binary code and the repetitive grids found in textiles, as a way to express her thoughts and feelings.
