A graduate in Fine Art, Canberra School of Art, Adrienne Richards lives in Springwood, Blue Mountains and has a studio at Kil.n.it Experimental Ceramics Studio in Glebe, Sydney. She makes hand-built ceramic forms, with applied drawings, surface decoration and glazing techniques, which explore issues around the environment and humans’ place on Earth. Her work is inspired by past experiences working in the museum sector, more recent visits into museum collections, painting plein air in the Australian landscape and observations made under the microscope.
