There’s certain pieces that just strike you as soon as you see them and this bowl by Karine Hilaire is definitely one of them. The rhythms of dashes across it’s folded surface are so pleasing to watch - blue flicks that jump over gaps and stretch out on folds in such a free way that you can’t but feel there’s been a joy in its making. Come and see for yourself, tomorrow night (Thurs 6th), at the private view of our new show ‘& The Sky Was Purple’, 6.30-9pm. All welcome. - View Karine Hilaire’s collection in the exhibition ‘& The Sky Was Purple’ (7th Feb - 1st March)

Kirsty Adam’s work is both functional and holds aesthetic meaning, retaining the spontaneity and delicacy intrinsic to making on the potters’ wheel. A Japanese comb tool is used to create and enhance the throwing lines. Her Icelandic collection is the culmination of a research trip to Iceland to express the ‘otherworldliness’ of the landscape.
Kirsty is an award-winning ceramicist currently working from her studio in Newcastle upon Tyne. She originally trained at Brighton Art College and then on the potters’ wheel in Japan. She has developed a personal approach to throwing on the wheel using porcelain clay, to produce unique pieces for the home.
