Coastline environments, volcanic and geothermal areas have been the stimuli for my recent ceramic works.  The volcanic and geothermal localities of the central North Island, New Zealand, are areas to which I have returned many times since 1980 to record on film the detail and drama of these fascinating places.

Here at your feet, and in the air you breathe, are the feverish exhalations of volanic activity.  Therse sites are the art galleries of nature's creations, thrust to the surface, from subterranean crucibles by steam, boiling water and gases to create ephemeral or slowly evolving, colouful abstract patterns.    Len Castle, 2009
