Georgia Stevenson is an emerging ceramic artist based in Naarm/Melbourne. Her current practice is guided by a self-initiated research project, Breaking Ground, which explores using unconventional and locally found materials in ceramics such as construction and demolition waste. Breaking Ground is led by material and process, and the project’s scope extends beyond the physical and delves into provenance, meaning and significance of locality.
In 2016 Georgia graduated with a Bachelor of Design (Architectural Studies)(Hons) from QUT, and worked in the architecture industry for three years before transitioning into ceramics. She is interested in the crossover between ceramics and architecture, urban design, landscape, public art, mapping and circular systems thinking. Georgia is passionate about innovating with site specific materials to give character, colour, texture and meaning to our surroundings.
Georgia is a founding member of artist collective Alternative Ceramics Supply, alongside Amelia Black, Claire Ellis and Sarah Muir-Smith.
