Lone White's exotic travels in Asia and Africa inform her tropical ceramics.

Lone White


The tropical ceramics which Lone White builds are sculptural forms that reflect her extensive travel experiences in Asia, the Middle East, Africa and the South Pacific.

They afford her the opportunity to utilise specially developed glazes, which reflect the beauty and mystery of her subject matter.

These fungal forms use an experimental chrome green glaze that relates to the colours and textures of the tropical rainforest floor.

Lone's ceramic sculpture continues to explore the potential and special properties of this glaze, which develops a "twinkling" crystalline effect.

I first met Lone fifteen or so years ago and was struck by her energy and tenacity - which still appear to be un-wavering! She is dedicated to her art but also to the wider community development of facilities and exhibitions for the arts in Cairns, Far North Queensland, where she lives.

Originally from Denmark, Lone has adapted to life in tropical Australia with energy and exuberance. A leader in the public organisation and display of sculptural ceramics and visual art in Cairns, Lone has also made long lasting links with the people of countries that she has visited.




She travels to out-of-the-way villages by public transport, enjoying connections with a variety of people, some of whom are isolated and unsophisticated. All are devoted to the pursuit of the ceramic ideal within their own culture. Meaningful exchanges of artists and ideas have resulted from these self-directed studies.
