Iona Lundie is a graduate of The Glasgow School of Art. Iona is a designer maker whose work explores the rich cultural heritage of fire festivals in Scotland; events which have occurred annually across the country for hundreds of years.
There is a strong emphasis on repetition in her work, both in the lines, shapes and textures of the remaining burnt firewood. The circle is important as it leads from one moment to another as well as providing a nod to the recurring calendar of events and casting allows for Iona to accurately represent textures and build up larger pieces from repeated elements.
