Ros Auld
“I aim to express both the strength and fragility of nature using materials from the earth, with an interplay between the monumental forms and delicate, complex surface textures.
Landscape is my source; more the accumulation of recollected impressions than particular sites: the weathered surfaces, textures and subtle colours of the Australian bush and patterns in the cultivated landscape.”
Ros Auld studied painting and ceramics at the National Art School in Newcastle and Sydney.
In 1975, Auld worked in the ceramic studio of the painter John Piper in England. On returning to Australia in 1976, she taught visual arts and ceramics at tertiary level for a number of years before concentrating on her own work at her studio near Orange.
Her recent work encompasses large hand-built vessels, and steel and ceramic sculptures.
She has exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions and her work is represented in many galleries and private collections in Australia and overseas.
Auld has collaborated with many artists, notably John Olsen, Tim Winters and Gabriella Hegyes.
