In her previous career, Elms worked in mental and occupational health. Dreams, instinct and the subconscious continue to influence her practice. Her work is of special interest to Swindon Museum and Art Gallery as she studied ceramics at Swindon College and was taught using many of the ceramics now in the museum’s collection. For her Large flow pot Elms used beads in white and cobalt as a reference to traditional cobalt decorated pots.
