Peta Armstrong makes high-fired stoneware ceramics from her home studio on Wadawurrung Country along Victoria’s Surf Coast.
Drawn to both wheel-throwing and hand-building, she creates a balance between functional pieces and sculptural works, each carrying a sense of quiet contemplation. Inspired by natural landscapes, shifting textures, and the meditative rhythm of making, her work embodies an organic sensibility—one that invites touch, interaction, and reflection. This ongoing dialogue within the practice is deeply tied to process—where busy hands allow the mind to wander, returning again to these familiar markings. In this way, the work not only gives permission to daydream but gently guides the viewer there.
