Jo Lamoureux creates large, hand-built ceramic sculptures to convey her personal experiences and emotions. Her work delves into themes of body image, mental health, motherhood, domestic abuse and personal growth, aiming to articulate complex feelings and foster understanding. Inspired by ancient mythology and contemporary narratives, she explores transformation and renewal. Primarily using clay, which itself undergoes a transformative process, she merges organic elements like plants, animals, and the human body, creating abstract and fantastical forms. Through vibrant, unconventional materials, she highlights growth and resilience. Jo's art invites viewers to reflect on their own experiences, celebrating the enduring human spirit and the journey of self-discovery.
