Duncan Hooson

Ceramics

London-based ceramicist Duncan Hooson constructs high relief ceramic pots, panels, domestic and sculptural forms, applying a wide range of ceramic techniques and scale. His commissioned, collaborative and educational murals are fun, figurative and colourful. "The pots I make are always wheel-thrown and are usually made of composites, as it's the joining together and manipulation of clay that provides me with the satisfaction of the making process."

Tim Johnson

Wood

Isle of Wight-based artist and photographer, Tim Johnson uses soft materials such as grasses, rushes and willow bark to create site-specific installations and growing sculptures. Tim applies a variety of traditional techniques including twining, coiling and plaiting and fitching, exploring the use of plant materials and engaging with a sense of place. 'I'm fascinated by the way nature is creeping back over the relics and remains of human habitation and industry'.

Emma Johnstone

Ceramics

Emma Johnstone is a London-based contemporary ceramicist creating sculptural work using the dramatic firing process of Raku. She produces a range of sharp and precise hand-thrown hollow vessels, applying a slip resist technique to the flat surface of her deconstructed convex and concave forms, contrasting texture with gilding, patterned and matt surfaces. "I relish the contrast between making and firing and I am content to relinquish control of part of the process over to chance."

Joy-Pad

Metal

Their sturdy steel constructions tower, wind, bind and define space with a sense of movement and dynamism. Joy-Pad's steel forms offer a high finish and durability, reflecting the maker's working experience of industrial fabrication techniques.
