Relatives

Hermia Sappho Boyd (née Lloyd-Jones) (1931–2000[1]) was an Australian artist, writer, and a member of the Boyd artistic dynasty.

Boyd family

[edit]

The Boyd artistic dynasty began with the marriage of Emma Minnie à Beckett (known as Minnie) and Arthur Merric Boyd in 1886.[2] Both were already established as painters at the time of their marriage. Their second-born son Merric Boyd married Doris Gough and had five artistic children, Lucy de Guzman Boyd, Arthur Boyd, Guy Boyd, David Boyd, and Mary Elizabeth Boyd.[3]

In 1948 Hermia Lloyd-Jones joined the Boyd family through marrying David Fielding Gough Boyd.[1] Following the tradition of their family, their three daughters Amanda,[4] Lucinda, and Cassandra are artists.[5]

Education and early career

[edit]

Born in Sydney in 1931, Hermia Boyd (née Llyod Jones) was the daughter of Australian graphic artist Herman Lloyd-Jones[6] and Erica Lloyd-Jones, and the sister of Australian actress, artist, and gallerist Clytie Jessop.[7] Hermia first studied art privately with Joy Ewart, before attending the East Sydney Technical College where she worked under Lyndon Dadswell.[5] While studying she worked part-time at Martin Boyd Pottery with Guy Boyd and David Boyd.[8] In 1952, whilst in France, she studied wood-engraving with Edward Gordon Craig.[9] Early in 1970 while living in the south of France Hermia studied etching with Sathish Sharma.[9]

David & Hermia Boyd Pottery (1950–1968)

[edit]

In 1950, David and Hermia settled in Sydney to set up their first pottery in a shed based out of Paddington with fellow Australian potter Tom Sanders.[10] Producing a pottery range called Hermia Ware[11] and large individual pieces for exhibition. Hermia Ware went on to inspire other Australian potters including Milton Moon.[12] The couple's pottery style used wheel-thrown earthernware and terracotta clays to create both functional and sculptural forms. David experimented with different glazes including overglaze on porcelain, Italian Majolica,[13] manganese glaze, underglaze,[14] with Hermia often decorating the work using sgraffito techniques and sourcing medieval, byzantine, Coptic,[15] and Etruscan[16] imagery.[17] The couples potter's marks were usually painted or incised with 'Hermia Ware', 'Hermia', 'Boyd / England', 'D + H Boyd' and 'David + Hermia Boyd'.[18]

Moving to Europe in 1950, the couple established a pottery studio together in London, (Pinner, Middlesex)[19] which was publicized by Hermia's sister and gallerist Cyltie Lloyd-Jones.[20] and another later studio based in the South of France, in the provenance of Tourrettes-sur-Loup.[21] Hermia designed the distinctive figure sign 'Capricornia' for Cyltie Jessop and Joan Keast's Australian art shop in London, which the visiting Australian artist Stephen Briggs painted.[22] By the mid-1950s the Boyds became widely known as leading Australian potters.[23][24] They continued to work together primarily in pottery through to the mid-1960s. While working in London they were labelled by the British media as the "Golden Couple" of pottery.[25] Moving to Rome in 1961, Hermia and David worked on their pottery practice together in Australia, England and France before closing their last pottery in Murrumbeena in 1968 to concentrate on their respective individual artistic practices. David moved into a painting career, while Hermia focused on etching and sculpture.[26] The couple returned permanently to live and work in Australia from 1971.[25]

Solo career

[edit]

Boyd pursued a solo artist career before and after the closure of David and Hermia Boyd Pottery, as an illustrator, etcher, costumer and theatre set designer. She designed the curtain of the Royal Theatre in Ballarat[27] and designed all the costuming and sets for the 1958 Lola Montez production at the Elizabethan Theatre[28] which were reputed to have cost £80,000.[29] In 1960, Boyd designed the costuming and set design for Peter O'Shaughnessy's production of "Miss Julie"at the Russell Street Theatre.[30] In 1968 she illustrated the 1st edition cover for Citizens of Mist by Australian author Roger McDonald.[31] In 1971, Boyd had a solo exhibition at South Yarra Gallery Hermia Boyd: Sculptures, Bronzes, drawings and etchings.[32] A retrospective exhibition of her work was held in 1997 at Macquarie University Library, Hermia Boyd: a retrospective exhibition of selected works from 1945-1980.[33]
