Discovering wood ash has definitely had the most impact on my thinking around materiality. The plant absorbs minerals during it's lifetime and when burnt, carbon is released and you're left with the mineral content, I see this like a fingerprint. When the ash is fired in a kiln the elements combine to create an almost perfect glass, it's like having a conversation with the earth, it shows you what it's made of, what it can be transformed into. I think human's need to have these conversations with our planet in order to understand our impact, grief and connection to it.
