About us

fluxed earth is the collaborative ceramics practice of Rye Senjen and Kirstie Murdoch, based on Dja Dja Wurrung Country in Castlemaine, Victoria.

Their work explores elements of ancient ceramic forms and materials together with observations of connections with and within the other-than-human world.

Fluxed earth’s current focus is on sculptural works reflecting on ancient protectors and ritual vessels and vases with highly textured surfaces referencing insect activity, fungal and plant growth patterns and rock traces.

Rye studied ceramics at the Dunedin School of Art, Ōtepoti, Aotearoa New Zealand. Rye’s work is influenced by her studies of Sanskrit literature and philosophy.

Kirstie is a self-taught ceramicist. Her ceramic practice is informed by her previous career as a biological scientist and lifelong interest in the small, often overlooked or hidden details of the natural world.
