Textures of the Land

Patricia Shone

04 Jan 2020 - 01 Feb 2020

Working from the Isle of Skye for the past 25 years, Patricia Shone has developed her practise using techniques of texturing and stretching clay. Textures of the Land features new work in the Erosion Series and is a culmination of the development of Patricia’s very particular making methods, including all three of her firing processes: raku, charcoal saggar and wood firing.

Patricia was awarded the Craft Pottery Charitable Trust Emmanuel Cooper Prize in 2019 and her work is held in public collections including the Victoria and Albert Museum, London and the Ceramini Contemporary Ceramics Museum, Turkey.

‘My work is an expression of the continual journey towards understanding my place in life. I can’t separate it from my experience of living in this landscape or from the path that brought me here.’ Patricia Shone.
