Tea Ceremony with Souheki Mori
The tea ceremony in Japan is something we've been curious about for a long time, so I was intrigued by this short film this morning as I browsed the web first thing enjoying my very own cup of tea. The ideals of this ceremony seem to run against the culture of the cities found in the West, so I was
Art Quest London Interview Billy Lloyd
One subject we don't often touch upon here is business, as to be honest with you we aren't particularly motivated by the idea of making lots of money. I'm sure this may seem strange to many but we can honestly say that our platform is founded upon our passion for sharing creativity alone. What reall
The Successor of Kakiemon: The Story of the Kakiemon Porcelain Dynasty
I'm not usually the one bringing over videos or short films on to the blog, Daniel, my partner in crime, usually has that base covered. He's got a great eye for sniffing out the best in the film department, whether that be on Vimeo or through other parts of the web. But today I think I might have pi
Saltscapes by Motoi Yamamoto
We've come across many weird and wonderful projects over the years, searching for content each and every day and I hasten to add we've seen our fair share of disturbing, lots of remarkable, and the occasional mind boggling project on our internet travels. Coming across a completely new idea or proje
Quietus: a documentary
We find ourselves coming across pottery and ceramics each and every day now, it’s intertwined in to both our work and free time. As a few of you may have noticed in our sidebar and on the front of the shop we are in fact beginning to sell a few pieces here and there. What we don’t encounter too
Iconic Images Explores Namibia
Admittedly this is somewhat of a curve ball, but I like to think we pride ourselves on keeping a diverse mix of content to keep you all inspired. So with this in mind we're leaning quite a lot towards photography with this film following the company of Denis Glennon, who runs a series of safari tour
Lennon’s Poster by Peter Dean
I like creative people because they go that extra mile, even if it makes them look a little obsessed and, dare I say it, crazy. It doesn't matter, it's being created and that's it, which is exactly the kind of attitude that pushes the boundaries of what we conceive possible. I love this idea that th
Short Film on Sculptor Dimpy Menon
We are lucky that each day we get the opportunity to come across so many diverse and exciting creatives, everyone has their own story to tell and a fresh perspective to share with the world. I'd like to introduce you all to a sculptor today who's progressive persona really struck a chord with me, he
Place of Hope, The Kasama Community and the Great Ordeal
When me and Daniel decide to showcase videos on the blog we're often wary of the length, as we know many people can get distracted when watching long pieces. Today I'm going to throw this rule out of the window as I point you towards a piece titled 'Place of Hope, The Kasama Community and the Great
Furniture Designer: Taylor Donsker
Believe me when I say we've seen a lot of craftsmen, creatives, designers and makers over the years and heard many, many stories. Some of these are regularly repeated and you very quickly develop a nose for who is regurgitating the same message and those with genuine drive and passion to create some
Short Film on Brooklyn Glass
I'm afraid there's somewhat of an emphasis on the "short" element of this film today but it's a project that resonated with me somewhat earlier so I felt it was worthwhile showcasing despite the fact. I'd like it to be a little longer and I'm sure after watching you will too, but it is what it is, a
Fire, Clay, Flour by Edible Boston
I believe that to fully appreciate craft and design you have to get involved yourself, and create something that wasn't around before. Although I'd like to I can't force new individuals to turn their hand to wood, or clay, or any material for that matter, but what I can trust in is short films like
