'Eclectica'
Artist's Statement
The contemporary table is eclectic,
it updates traditions yet maintains beauty and ritual.
My set of cups & saucers relates to the
Fibonacci number series together with mystical teachings.
The vibration of Three is said to be the birthing of true wisdom
& the triangle represents the connection of Spirit, Mind, Body.
The number Five has a vibration that links to the physicality
of humans: five fingers and toes, five tactile senses.
 Five also represents our desire
 to balance our own internal equations.
Drinking tea with friends or family
is about sharing the colours and vibrations of life. Â
