From her Edinburgh studio artist Frances Priest creates intricate and colourful ceramic objects that celebrate her fascination for ornament and pattern. The work explores and interprets languages of ornament from different cultures, places and periods in history and is heavily influenced by her travels and a book she grew up with, The Grammar of Ornament by Owen Jones, first published in 1856. As a child, Frances read this book from cover to cover, and so began her love of pattern. Frances uses clay as a canvas on which to build richly drawn and layered surfaces of inlaid line, glaze colour and enamel decals. The results are intricate and beautiful.

Frances' Imbrication Series of works follow the evolution of a collection of decorative motifs drawn from the "Greek" pages of The Grammar of Ornament. They chart a course through Classical Greek architecture, high Victorian decorative art, and 21st-century generative digital animation, before landing on hand-inscribed and richly glazed ceramic forms.

The work is a celebration of the ongoing journey of a collection of motifs as they travel through history and the hands of multiple designers, makers, materials, and processes.

Imbrication began life as a collaborative digital project with artist Sam Healy, co-commissioned by Aberdeen Performing Arts and New Media Scotlands Alt-w Fund with investment from Creative Scotland.
