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.

Featuring work by over 75 artists & makers, each piece has been hand-selected from a flood of submissions
received after a spontaneous call for submissions issued on the news of England's second national lockdown (November 2020).
The resulting collection is an impressive mix of emerging and established names from all over the world in a range of medium
and a testament to the power of creativity.
