Tom Knowles Jackson

Tom makes pottery for use at the table, in the kitchen, and around the home, inspired by the ceremony of eating and drinking. He is continually fascinated by the tension between form and function, using glazes as ‘clothing’ to dress and emphasise strong silhouettes. This approach originates in his studies under Steve Sheridan as a schoolboy and his enduring admiration for makers including Richard Batterham, David Leach, and Gwyn Hanssen Pigott.
