In 2020 Helen Carnac moved from London, where she had lived and worked for over 30 years, to West Somerset to set up home and studios with her partner David Gates on a Seventeenth century farm. Her daily commute has become a very different adventure and exploring the farm's outdoor spaces on her way to her studio is evident in her new work.
The vessels in this series have been developed from Helen's corrugated clad studio and reference her surrounding and the papery qualities that she has perceived while walking through the gardens and fields adjoining her workshop.
They are made by folding up, unfolding and re-folding very thin shim copper into forms, before they are coated with layers of vitreous enamel and fired at temperature.
