Josephine Townsend is a ceramic artist inspired by the colours and textures of the Australian landscape.
Working from her home studio in Canberra, the colours, shapes and patterns of the Australian landscape and flora underpin her work. She makes a range of functional, sculptural and decorative items. Her coloured inlaid porcelain (nerikomi) work explores the precious qualities of porcelain, the delicacy, the luminous translucence and the pure colour response.
