Drinking set composed of 2 cups, 1 bottle and 1 tray hand-built by Alessandra Taccia. Alessandra’s exploration of space and composition, especially negative space, has been translated from painting to ceramics, which this set is a wonderful example of. Her interest in still-life and domestic objects demonstrates her desire to find the sublime in everyday life.
The majority of Alessandra’s ceramics originate as pinch pots which are then developed through a coiling process. The muted hues and matt surfaces are achieved by applying dry glazes or simply leaving the exterior unglazed. Alessandra’s works are both functional and sculptural and can be used everyday, elevating the experience of daily rituals.

Alessandra Taccia is an Italian artist and self-taught ceramist working and living in Cambridge. She studied Fine Art at Accademia Ligustica di Belle Arti, Genova and takes inspiration from ancient artifacts from the Mediterranean area and the Far East, as well as Zen philosophy and Theosophy.
Alessandra uses a muted and restrained palette in her ceramics and paintings, hues and tones which are drawn from memories of familiar natural and urban landscapes. Alessandra’s restrained approach results in the concise expression of ideas.

This striking hand-thrown porcelain vessel has black porcelain slip brushstroke and no glaze, a relatively new technique for Tom Kemp. The  minimal form is a three dimensional piece of art, with Tom's distinctive markings creating a piece that not only tells the story of its making, recording every intricacy of movements made, but also gives the observer endless angles of interest.

Tom Kemp is a ceramicist who creates large porcelain vessels which express his interest and passion for calligraphy and Roman sign writing through mark-making. Tom creates exquisite minimal forms on the wheel which are then brought to life what is usually just a single brush stroke with a square shaped brush. The vessels are the surfaces for his brushstrokes which reveal a huge amount of information of the way he moves during the extremely quick painting process.
Tom has experimented with many different tools for mark making, working to exclude any recognisable language and focus on movements, graphical and bodily relationship, universal aspects of writing that are unspecific to any group. With refined forms and distinctive markings, Tom’s work has fast become noted among both ceramicists and collectors worldwide.

Sophie Cook graduated from Camberwell School of Arts in 1997 with a series of bottles in varying shades of matt turquoise. This was her reaction to the glazes conventionally used in traditional ceramics, which she deemed dull. Sophie now works with a huge variety of tones, which function more than merely as surface decoration, and are integral to Sophie’s designs.
Sophie’s pieces are on display in prominent permanent collections, such as The Manchester City Galleries, the Geffrye Museum, London and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Sophie is often commissioned for pieces and installations, meaning she is represented in residencies all over the world. In 2002, she was awarded the Adrian Sassoon Award of the Kiln at Chelsea Crafts Fair, and from 2009 to 2011 she was included in the touring exhibition ‘European Design Since 1985: Shaping the New Century'.

"The pure sombre forms, almost oriental in their naked perfection, are brought to life with the glazes that give each piece its unrepeatable uniqueness."

Christiane Perrochon’s fixation with colour has driven her to develop new and rare hues, an exploratory journey she’s been on for over forty years. Along with hand-throwing each of her pieces, the addition of colour grants each and every one of them a unique character.

Christiane Perrochon was born in Geneva, Switzerland in 1942. There she completed her studies at the École des Beaux Arts and the École des Arts Décoratifs, receiving her diploma in ceramics in 1962. After working in private studios and teaching ceramics at the International School of Geneva, she established her own studio as an independent artist in 1971 in Hermance, Geneva. In 1979 she moved to Tuscany where she presently resides with her partner.

Black and white porcelain are combined together to create this large seascape vessel. It has a unique design that clearly evokes the movement of the sea and sparks the imagination. A refined and organic statement piece.
" Through my work I hope to draw out the beauty and connections which can be made through everyday objects, going beyond the classical concepts of function. Informed by the movement and flux in nature my glass pieces reflects the colours, the changing light, and mystery of the natural world, while porcelain vessels, embedded with mark and gesture, capture an evolving landscape. Tonal blends and colour weave throughout the work and unique surfaces are obtained through thorough material research and testing. I’m fascinated by industrial processes and adapt traditional modelling and casting techniques to make bespoke pieces. Techniques used in both the making of glass and ceramics are crossed and re applied so that unique forms and surface qualities are achieved.
For my ceramics I use a machine called a jigger-jolly, which is an old piece of equipment that is ordinarily used for mass-producing, except that I don’t want to mass-produce my work; I’m interested in how you can adapt a traditional modelling technique to create something individual. Through much testing I’ve learned that there are ways of influencing what the landscapes I create might look like, but there’s always an element of surprise, and I love this aspect in the process."

London-based ceramic artist Abigail Schama came to pottery from painting. Abigail Schama’s hand-thrown, stoneware bowls tell stories through surface. Any bowl is basic and universal in its meaning.  The process of building up and then turning the form creates their skin and character. Abigail relies on the processes of slipping and chattering; words which describe human contact. These pieces are about imprinting the imperfect, unexpected and unrepeatable marks of a human hand on the most primal and unchanging material.
'A glint of gold lustre can break up the clay’s earthy character while honouring the quirks in its skin and contours.'

Beautiful Rhossili glass tea bowl in misty grey.
"With glass the element of surprise is how beautiful bubbles and depth can be achieved. This is dependent on how the glass folds and melts when being cast for several days in a kiln. While this offers fluidity and movement the modelling and finishing processes are always very controlled; the forms I make are symmetrical and there needs to be real clarity in the surface finish. Models are made with varying thicknesses. Glass pools into these shapes, creating subtle changes in colour. Light interacts with polished and satin surfaces, reflecting and refracting in beautiful ways."

Celia Dowson is an artist whose ceramics and cast glass objects go far beyond their functional use. Celia graduated with a BA in Ceramic Design from Central Saint Martins in 2014, before receiving her MA in Ceramics and Glass from the Royal College of Art in 2018.
Celia works with the different properties of glass and porcelain to evoke the movement of nature in different ways. Her porcelain vessels represent evolving landscapes, mountainscapes and seascapes through marks and gestures. Her glass pieces vary in thickness, causing subtle gradations in colour. This reflects the colours, changing light and mystery of the natural world.
Celia’s work has been exhibited widely and is part of two museum collections, Bullseye Projects in Portland, USA and the New Taipei City Yingge Ceramics Museum, Taiwan. Her unique and skillful manipulation of ceramics and glass have earned her awards such as the 2020 Wallpaper* Design Award and the 2019 FRANZ Rising Star Award.

Following the firing process, white soil is applied in a thin layer, enhancing the rough texture of the piece.

Ozawa's designs are created in a way that leave them open to interpretation and multiple uses and purposes. His tableware is made 'imperfect' with the hope that the pieces will continually evolve through daily use. This characterful plate is simultaneously precious and enticing to use, and is sure to bring joy to meals.

Tetsuya Ozawa originates from Tajimi, Gifu Prefecture, but now lives in Tokomame City, Aichi Prefecture, which has been celebrated for its ceramic production since the Heian Period (794-1185). Ozawa’s decision to be a ceramicist was made early on, and he graduated in 2008 with a degree in Japanese Fine Arts from Nagoya University. He went on to train under Yoshikawa Masamichi. Ozawa’s tableware creations reconcile inspiration taken from modern crafts, tea culture and folk arts.
