ABOUT
Miniature Ceramic Temples
“I studied archaeology because I couldn’t stop thinking about the buildings left behind—how they held meaning, memory, and ritual. These small temples are my way of honouring that. A quiet conversation between clay and history.”
— Kate Shea
Ceramicist & Archaeologist
"I consider Kate Shea’s work to be outstanding. Over a number of years, she has developed a personal and focused artistic expression through clay sculptures inspired by architectural forms.
While the proportions, detailing, and stylistic references in her work often reflect real-and at times exotic-architectural styles such as domes, spires, minarets, and towers, the finished pieces, once fired to at least a biscuit stage, retain a handmade quality that is both obvious and subtly compelling.
These are not mere models; they are sophisticated, interpretive artworks. Each piece serves as a trigger for the imagination."

Works shaped by history and imagination — delicate, contemplative pieces that invite pause, wonder, and a deeper kind of beauty.
