Juliet’s astounding ceramic objects wowed and delighted Taranaki National Art Awards audiences. The judges were also captivated by her gravity defying funky forms and glorious glazing, acknowledging her talent and skills as a two time award winner in the 3D Category.
Her epic vessels were Suessian inspired objects of joy, infusing us with wonder and delight! We are fortunate to have appreciated Juliet’s unique ceramic works, and her exquisite whimsical expressions of self will endure and inspire.
Arohanui Juliet.
