About the Artist

She is perhaps best known as a ceramicist and mosaicist, working internationally on large scale public murals.

She has a rich background in art, with ancestors who instilled in her a love for creating and a desire to use her talents to make a difference. Reichardt’s artistic style combines traditional techniques with modern ideas, resulting in unique and thought-provoking works. Her use of colour, texture, and symbolism adds depth and emotion to her pieces, making them accessible to all while also encouraging critical thinking

She is perhaps best known as a ceramicist and mosaicist, working internationally on large scale public murals.

A renegade who is revered in anti-establishment circles, Reichardt's preoccupation with seditious ceramics places her within an artistic tradition extending back to William Morris. They are modified in a "radical use of traditional things" and often adorned with skulls, cheeky slogans and political statements. Her first solo exhibition, entitled "Mad in England", provided an exploration of this theme, which she has continued to pursue in subsequent work.

Carrie Reichardt has spoken publicly about the use of craft and art as protest and her skills have been put to good use as a vehicle for her own political activism. She has been an outspoken advocate for using Art as a form of personal therapy and "Mad In England" is a perfect back stamp for her work.
