Vicki Fox writes, "I love nature and I love making art. These are the two pillars of my creative output. When I am in nature, forms I see inspire me to gather sticks, stones, rocks, pods and glass. I am also comfortable creating sculpture, some functional, some just aesthetically pleasing, challenging. The reflective quality of mirror so often repeats the mirror of water in nature - I'm fascinated with these possibilities to bring it into the home.

I’m happy as long as I get to have my hands expressing what is in my heart, what my vision brings
into my soul. The pieces I make are inspired by the nature forms I see in my everyday work as a landscape designer - branches, leaves, flowers."
