"A road worker inverts a traffic cone and it becomes a funnel. My dad ‘borrowed’ a kitchen jug and mixed concoctions for farm use. Things change their character through use and circumstance. The land does this too, as 5 million cows are out there doing their thing.” Cheryl Lucas, artist statement from the 2017 Portage Ceramic Awards catalogue, Te Uru Waitakere Contemporary Gallery
