Sky – art tiles
In the series of Art tiles I have been working on through the Covid lockdown, comes this new collection – Sky. In the solitude of my studio and that of quarantine, visuals of the varied forms of the sky and its calm, rhythmic expanse were the most joyful to create. Sky, a fleeting moment.

Art tiles are miniature wall art in ceramic that beautify smaller cosy spaces. When one does not want overpowering artwork or sculpture, art tiles bring just the right amount of aesthetic and character to the space.

The Sky art tiles have been created using the Japanese Nerikomi technique. In this technique, the clay is coloured with ceramic pigments or colouring oxides and then patterns are constructed using the coloured clays. While it requires tremendous control, it also asks the maker to let go at just the right moments to achieve the natural rhythm and flow of the material.
I like to leave them unglazed so that I can retain the natural texture of the clay. These tiles are made in stoneware clay matured at 1200 degrees celsius.
Each of the tiles are 6 x 6 inches in size and priced individually.
