Oceanic Manta_edit.jpg

Made entirely by hand from small porcelain tiles, the manta artwork has a wingspan of almost 2 metres. Over a period of several months, each and every tile was carefully cut, decorated, glazed and kiln fired. 225 individually made pieces complete the finished artwork!

I’m currently looking for a permanent home for this work. Please get in touch if you have any thoughts or suggestions, I’d love to hear from you. Inspired by this incredible ocean giant, I hope to find a location where this mural can capture the imagination of those that see it, promoting both the beauty and vulnerability of manta rays. Also available for installation is a tile mural of a humpback whale calf, created using the same intricate process.

Special thanks to marine biologist, wildlife filmmaker and ocean conservationist Inka Cresswell, whose stunning photography inspired this work.
