Adela Powell

 -

With great sadness, we must announce that Adela Powell passed away on the 2nd of October, 2022.


Universal patterns, textures and forms in nature, where science and art are inseparable, are a constant source of inspiration. Adela constructed vessels and figurative forms using various techniques. Form, surface and method of making are integrated in all of Adela’s work but an experimental approach is adopted in the handling of materials. Various clays are used sometimes incorporating other material (organic and inorganic), the inherent tactile and textural qualities of the clay being enhanced with many layers of oxides slips and glazes, fired to 1250 C in an electric kiln. Adela was always drawn to fragmentation and erosion, which was very much attempted to incorporate in all of her work, allowing fortuitous accidents and influences from the subconscious to enrich the process. Forms often convey a sense of metamorphosis.

Callington, Cornwall.
