And Also Lit A Candle or Two

And Also Lit a Candle or Two is a ceramic series influenced by Olivia’s mother, Eileen’s, practice of lighting candles for her loved ones. It is a habit that has gone on throughout her life, stemming from Roman Catholic traditions.

Despite the family’s playful joking, there is always great comfort and gratitude in receiving a casual text saying, “Have been sitting in the sun, eating and also lit a candle or two. x”. To which the reply would be, nonetheless, “Hopefully a candle for me! xx”.
