Series of Ceramics by Mary Kay Botkins
I thought I'd come through with a little ceramic work this afternoon to compliment what we've already curated so far this week. So once again I scoured around the various creative networks to see what I could come up with and I landed upon the page of Mary Kay Botkins, who I have to admit I'm not al
Short Film on Wire Sculptor Rodger Stevens
It feels great to return to an artist, creative or craftsman and offer them a little further coverage, given many of these independents are on quite a personal journey with their work, it’s interesting to see what makes each one tick. I thought today we’d revisit the work of New York based Rodge
Brooklyn Makers by Jennifer Causey
I thought it was about time we returned to the talented Jennifer Causey now as a means of promotion for the fantastic little book she's been curating in Brooklyn which celebrates the districts creativity and independent community. For a while now I've been watching from afar as she's added a taster
Ceramic Sculptures by Claire Muckian
The past few weeks have seen a mini influx of ceramic work into the shop, with some remarkable creations from both Japan and here in Europe. Perhaps this has taken the edge off work we've been coming across for the blog as I haven't noted too many functional wares that have really stopped me in my t
Wire Works by Masao Seki
I love wire sculptures and wire work in general, it's quite a fascinating subject in my opinion as it's out of the general scope of what artists usually produce. People like Alexander Calder have originated in this from and have then expanded out into other avenues such as mobile work, or larger scu
Leslie Williamson Photographs Constantin Brancusi’s Atelier
I better insert a spoiler alert before we begin today as I've once again raided the blog of photographer Leslie Williamson as she puts together the second edition of her handcrafted modern book. Now I really hope I'm not revealing too much that is to reach the final publication, I'm assuming these a
Olga Bennet Photographs Kim Mckechnie’s Studio
Another great week begins and with it I thought we'd make a return trip to view the progressive portfolio of Australian photographer Olga Bennet. As many will hopefully know Olga is someone who's work we have admired here in the past and it's been brilliant to watch her talents flourish and mature o
Short Film on Harrison McIntosh
Film has been our main weapon of choice over the past few days so I'm going to continue on this note and introduce you all to another captivating character named Harrison McIntosh. Perhaps that's a little ignorant of me, the fact is many of you may of come across this individuals work previously as
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
Glass Sculptures by Bert Frijns
So last week was pretty hectic here, we were running between London and the office for Design Week, but it was great to step outside the bubble and get inspiration in other creative fields. One particular place where we picked up a few ideas was at the Victoria and Albert Museum, although not packed
Wooden Sculpture by Ben Butler
One thing that never ceases to amaze me is the patterns that naturally emerge here on the platform, we often go through periods of focusing on one material making it easy to get overstocked in that specific department. Recently we seem to have kept the balance just right, but not too long ago cerami
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
