Katharine Morling Fine Ceramics
Katharine Morling Fine Ceramics. (England)
« My work has been a personal narrative, which alludes to tales, dreams and nightmares. I bring my drawings alive in 3D. My work is often life-size or larger; a chair will stand a metre tall. The work has been of a domestic nature, taking inanimate objects such as chairs and layering them with emotion. As I build up piece by piece, I have created rooms with atmosphere where unexpected feelings arise from apparently mundane objects.
I work very instinctively, one piece leads to the next, I try not to pin down what I am doing or even why. I have to trust and believe that I can communicate through this medium.
My searching is never complete; each piece is a journey for answers that are only hinted at, with more questions.
I predominantly work in clay but use other materials when I feel it is necessary: glass, string, wood, raffia and mirror. »

Damned lake in Tanzania – photographer Nick Brandt
Damned lake in Tanzania – photographer Nick Brandt.
- Any Animal That Touches This Lethal Lake Turns to Stone (article on Gizmodo)
There’s a deceptively still body of water in Tanzania with a deadly secret—it turns any animal it touches to stone. The rare phenomenon is caused by the chemical makeup of the lake, but the petrified creatures it leaves behind are straight out of a horror film.
Photographed by Nick Brandt in his new book, Across the Ravaged Land, petrified creatures pepper the area around the lake due to its constant pH of 9 to 10.5—an extremely basic alkalinity that preserves these creatures for eternity. According to Brandt:
I unexpectedly found the creatures – all manner of birds and bats – washed up along the shoreline of Lake Natron in Northern Tanzania. No-one knows for certain exactly how they die, but it appears that the extreme reflective nature of the lake’s surface confuses them, and like birds crashing into plate glass windows, they crash into the lake. The water has an extremely high soda and salt content, so high that it would strip the ink off my Kodak film boxes within a few seconds. The soda and salt causes the creatures to calcify, perfectly preserved, as they dry.
I took these creatures as I found them on the shoreline, and then placed them in ‘living’ positions, bringing them back to ‘life’, as it were. Reanimated, alive again in death.
The rest of the haunting images follow and they feature in Brandt’s book, available here. Or, you could go and visit for yourself—but keep a safe distance from the water, please. [New Scientist]

Tout animal qui touche ce lac se transforme en pierre.
Situé en Tanzanie, ce lac porte un lourd et mortel secret, tout animal quil le touche devient « pierre ».
Ce phénomène rare est causée par la composition chimique du lac, et les créatures pétrifiées qu’il laisse derrière lui sont tout droit sorti d’un film d’horreur.
Nick Brandt les a photographié, à découvrir dans son nouveau livre, terre ravagée, créatures pétrifiée jonche la région autour du lac en raison de son pH constant de 9 à 10,5 – une alcalinité très basique qui préserve ces créatures pour l’éternité .
Selon Brandt : J’ai découvert ses créatures – toutes sortes d’oiseaux et de chauves-souris – échoués le long de la rive du lac Natron dans le nord de la Tanzanie. Comme les oiseaux qui s’écrasent sur les fenêtres vitrées, ils s’écrasent dans le lac. La soude et le sel font que les créatures se calcifie, et reste parfaitement conservées.
J’ai pris ces créatures que j’ai trouvé sur le rivage, et les ai placé dans des conditions « de vie » , afin de les ramener à la «vie» , en quelque sorte. Réanimées, vivantes encore dans la mort.

Aerial taxidermy art by Claire Morgan

« My work is about our relationship with the rest of nature, explored through notions of change, the passing of time, and the transience of everything around us. For me, creating seemingly solid structures or forms from thousands of individually suspended elements has a direct relation with my experience of these forces. There is a sense of fragility and a lack of solidity that carries through all the sculptures. I feel as if they are somewhere between movement and stillness, and thus in possession of a certain energy.Animals, birds and insects have been present in my recent sculptures, and I use suspense to create something akin to freeze frames. In some works, animals might appear to rest, fly or fall through other seemingly solid suspended forms. In other works, insects appear to fly in static formations. The evidence of gravity – or lack of it – inherent in these scenarios is what brings them to life, or death. »
