Ceramic Stories by Fleur Schell

Ceramic Stories by Fleur SchellFleur Schell ceramic
Although Fleur Schell lives and works in Western Australia, her work is relevant no matter which corner of the globe you call home. Schell’s ceramic art is often narrative, as we see in The Excellent Adventures of Heidi and Kilbey, a series of figures and scenes that lovingly document a mother’s vision of her little girl’s every day life. Created for a children’s book she is writing, the porcelain figures will grace each page of this ceramic story book.





The characters are quaint and lovely from afar, but when you look closely at the details, you begin to understand the true charm of this work - look at the detail of ‘Medicine Chest’.
