Ceramics show, City Lit

Last week the 13 Ceramics Diploma course graduates showed a pot or two each at New Designers, but the show at City Lit had much more space - three rooms.

Left to right, work by Raewyn Harrison, Christabel Birbeck, Jennifer Harkins, and Jane Pritchard. I had a chance to chat with Christabel and Jennifer about their work and their experience on the course - it sounds incredibly intense, two years of "part time" study that is the equivalent of the first two years of the BA course. Five graduates are going on to Farnham, and others to other degree courses.Work by Linda Rowland (the spider is made of bits of cast barbie-doll!) and Lesley Warner.
Experimental pieces using metal in with the clay - amazing - by Deborah Thompson.
More metal, this time not fired with the clay, by Annabel Nash -
Beautiful bowls by Mariam Cullum -
More work downstairs in the vitrines - Orli Ivanov, Raewyn Harrison, Sandy Layton -
The interior of one of Raewyn Harrison's architectural pieces -
And I couldn't resist including the shoe reflections in this shot (gorgeous pot by Orli Ivanov, scuffed shoes by Arche, vintage 2001) -
