Michelle O’Loughlin
Michelle O’Loughlin’s connection with clay began at art school in 1989 and has remained a lifelong passion.
Following a career in fashion design across the UK, Sydney and Hong Kong, she returned to ceramics. Her sculptural practice explores connection, memory, displacement and nostalgia, working primarily in stoneware and porcelain. Recent work includes a series of ceramic Mixtapes, drawing on music, memory and the cultural associations of objects from the past, alongside an ongoing exploration of materiality, form and glaze.

Relics- Low Noise
See Artwork »A Bit Grungy, a bit overused, overstretched, a little bit over it, but no less a treasure. Memories in Dolby. Low Noise – Analogue technology at its finest atunement

Relics-No Rewind
See Artwork »An act of love, a chance to show off your music knowledge, a break up or a plea to get back together. Memories are wobbly, so are these mixtapes. They are larger than life as our memories should be.

Relics- Autobahn
See Artwork »Relics of our memories, a bit wobbly but good memories no less. No cameras in clubs, and a freedom we can only dream of now, If you’ve been on the autobahn…..”Mixkassette” blasting, you know 🙂
