Ceramics by Fumihiro Toda
Coming across great ceramics and pottery has been quite an easy task for me lately, it doesn't take long to find an artist I like whilst browsing a Japanese shop or website, this obviously gets me researching on the specific individual. Unfortunately when I arrive at their portfolio page they're usu
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
Series of Ceramics by Lisa Hammond
Once the week has started I'm always eager for Tuesday evening to come around, as this is when we get the opportunity to get a little creative ourselves and experiment in the studio of a local potter. What better way to prepare for this than a return visit to Lisa Hammond, an English potter who has
Ceramics by Jill Shaddock
It’s amazing to see such style and simplicity in makers situated on our own turf, unfortunately it’s not something that we come across here on a regular basis, but these works made by Manchester based Jill Shaddock are very eye pleasing indeed. I originally came across her works on the Snug webs
Blueware Vases by Glithero
I'm doing the unthinkable today by returning to the same creative who's work we showcased yesterday, but before we get inundated with complaints I better mention he's a filmmaker highlighting some really inspiring makers and shakers. Yesterday Petr Krejci introduced us all to the Czech collective th
Ceramics by Naotsugu Yoshida
Looking back over the past few weeks we've been really spoilt in terms of creative talent, it brings me great joy uncovering all these individuals and hopefully I'll be shining a bit of light on them in terms of exposure. Today we're going to explore the work of Naotsugu Yoshida, a potter who lives
Inside the Studio of Japanese Potter Takeryo Kawaguchi
Today I've come across another special little feature that really grabbed my attention, it's an inside look at the studio of Japanese potter Takeryo Kawaguchi. He makes some incredible pieces like bowls, cups and tea pots so it's great to see the process and the environment that he creates in. He wa
Homewares and Lifestyle Imagery at Stroll Store
It's always great to see lifestyle imagery of ceramics, furniture and other objects as it gives you an idea of how these pieces function in a real world environment. It's something we're looking to add into our shop in the near future but it's quite hard to master, we've tried lots of options, both
Objects by Ceramic Studio Vitrified
It's always a joy discovering new companies who have the same aesthetic as us, although you'd think we would be into anything 'minimal' or 'modern' that's not really the case. It's a lot more complicated than that and we seem to be getting very particular about the substance behind a project or busi
Pottery by Takuji Hayashi
As my Japanese creative showcase slowly dwindles I'm left with a mixed batch of feelings, one being attached to the amount of amazing individuals working in different creative arts in Japan, the other relating to the disappointment across this side of the pond in terms of variety. It becomes pretty
Ceramics at Utsuwa Gallery
I've got some wonderful imagery to share with you all today, I actually found this website over the weekend and I spent quite a long time just browsing through the different photographs. In fact I couldn't find too much out about the company itself but I've tried my best to conjure up some informati
Artists and Works at Katakuchi-Ya
Easy breezy on the ceramics front, I've been holding onto a stack of artists and creatives that I wanted to highlight over the next coming weeks. This specific site and work that I'm highlighting today could have given me many options but I decided that since I've got quite a variety on the go I'd s
