VERONIQUE SELLIES
CERAMICIST
I have been working with clay since 1996, a journey that began with my studies at the ANU, Hornsby & Brookvale TAFE. Along the way, my work has been featured in the Australian Ceramics Magazine, and had the privilege of exhibiting both nationally and in France.
I started teaching ceramics in 2016, sharing my love for the craft. Recently moved to the mountains and built my studio in Bullaburra.
My creations include both wheel-thrown and hand-built pieces, with a particular passion for Saggar-fired work, laced with metalwork. My artistic journey has been influenced by my upbringing in the Middle East and in Africa. Moroccan pottery has always captivated me with the rich earthy colors, symbolic geometric patterns and the use of metal overlays on pottery.
