Ink, dust, clay, paper, water.
The objects in Ink Dust &
Offerings are exactly that, offerings. Made from the simplest things, these
works document the searching interactions between individual and medium and
then offer them to others to continue that interaction.
The ceramics and ink work record a thoughtful and playful sense
of touch and sight, illuminate flexibilities, mistakes, forgiveness, give and
take. What can the medium and individual offer each other? Who brings what to
the table and how can the innate qualities of both parties be appreciated?
The collection of domestic wares are recognisably functional
and yet all one of a kind. They encourage mindfulness during our daily habits
of eating and sharing. What is awkward at first touch becomes familiar over
time. They have taken on a life of their own and will continue to find new
relationships with new owners.

Kate Zeritis initially trained in Printmaking at the
National Art School. However, she found herself happier with clay and sumi ink.
The relationships between her Greek family heritage and love of Australia’s
landscape, flora and fauna is a continuous inspiration for her work.
