Sculptural Ceramics explores the boundaries between two traditionally pigeon-holed genres. One is often considered ‘fine art’ the other ‘craft’. Can this still be considered a valid perception?

The exhibition is by no means a comprehensive survey but hopes through its broad range of approach to offer a tantalising glimpse at the diversity of work currently produced by artists across the UK.

Sculptural Ceramics comprises of a permanent exhibition of established and emerging artists alongside four changing focus exhibitions of work by Christie Brown, Halima Cassell, Merete Rasmussen and Jason Wason.

The exhibition also coincides with the launch of our new and exciting year-long collaboration with Central Saint Martin’s School of Art Ceramic Design Course. Rafael Atencia, Sarah Frances Core, Kako Oya, Charlotte Mary Pack, Sevak Zargarian will be the first students to exhibit their work in the external display cases at Kings Place.
