AN exhibition of ceramics in Oriel Fach in Oriel Q - Queen's Hall Gallery, Narberth, runs alongside the summer show that ends in the auction on Sunday at 2 pm.

Three recently graduated students from West Wales College of Arts, Fiona Scourfield, Martine Smithson and Frances Brosman, are exhibiting their degree work.

The high standard and completely different techniques result in a fascinating and excellent show.

Fiona has employed new technology which she explains: "My ceramic practice deals with the exciting interface between the digital 3D world and traditional ceramic production. I create designs using CAD programs which are then produced using 3D printers and traditional slip-casting methods in semi-porcelain and earthenware.

"Inspiration is drawn from tropical plants and the formal language of ceramic vessels. The surface treatment also employs digital technology and photographic manipulation."

Frances makes fragile looking 'Favela, Shanties', thinly slabbed porcelain structures perched on dowelling rods, inspired by her travels in Asia, and also delicate cylindrical vases, textured and patterned.

Martine's pots are inspired by the textures and colours of the sea and shore. They have beautiful surfaces which she achieves using oxides and volcanic glazes. They have the feel of treasure that has been unearthed after millions of years.

To see this high standard of ceramics from three talented artists with such contrasting methods of creating unusual work is an added delight on a visit to the Queen's Hall Gallery.
