Sophie Cook creates delicate porcelain vessels that marry the elements of colour and form. Graduating in 1997 from Camberwell School of Arts, her work can now be found in collections across the world and in 2002 she was awarded the Adrian Sassoon Award of the Kiln at Chelsea Crafts Fair.
Hannah creates both monoprints and ceramic work. There is a theme of interwoven methods throughout; each approach blending into the next, her unique creations embrace their strikingly different techniques. With purposeful brush strokes, stamps, pencil marks and carvings she creates fluid visual landscapes on the textures of canvas and smooth ceramic surfaces.
Anna Lambert, a nationally recognised full time maker, makes hand-built earthenware ceramics using various techniques including slab-building, modelling and painted slips. Using a variety of techniques, each of her pieces are entirely unique.
Akiko Hirai produces both practical and decorative ceramic ware that is held in private collections and museums worldwide. Her Japanese background and aesthetics strongly influence her ceramic work while her pieces are also perfectly rooted in contemporary designs.
Carol works from her home studio in rural Angus, with views out to the foothills of the Cairngorm mountains that offer daily inspiration. She is a ceramics graduate of Grays School of Art in Aberdeen and has been running her ceramics studio since 1991. For 15 years she ran her hand made tile studio and gallery in Edinburgh, gradually developing her practice to become an exhibiting artist.
Anja Lubach grew up in Germany and graduated from the Royal college in 2000. She spent a month on Residency at the German manufacturer Rosenthal where she was free to explore porcelain as creative medium.
