Art work Description:
Bowers' elegant ceramic work brings together many traditions - not only in the quality and craftsmanship of the ceramic pieces themselves, a theme echoed in the Willow blue china pattern, but also in his imagery. The clash of the Australian reality - a brash cockatoo and botanical curiosity, the banksia - matched with delicate china from another world. Bowers skilful work is delightful; the filagree banksia leaves, the three dimensional effect of the banksia seeds popping open, the long satiny feathers of the cockatoo, the shimmering effect of gold and marbling. This is Bowers at his decorative best.
