Cabby Luxford

Cabby uses alternative firing techniques for her highly burnished pieces including Indian smoke firing and raku. Her work often marries her passion for clay and also for mudlarking – searching for ‘treasure’ on the foreshore of the River Thames. Words are often added to her pieces and often so are the finds that she discovers. The firing techniques add a sense of age to the pieces. ‘For me, this process echos the unknown journey of the artefacts I find, a hidden story of lost and found. It delights the inner child in me to discover these pieces, and to free them from their watery grave and to becoming part of a visual piece of artwork.’
