David Frith

My work explores the thrown form - searching for that essence - a quality that
survives time and where the traditional and contemporary meet. I use the techniques of the past with the eyes of the present. Pieces are individual, often on a large scale and include platters, bottles, pitchers and jars alongside some pressed and extruded forms. I like flat surfaces, which enhance innovative decorative techniques and use celadons, shinos and ashed surfaces in combination together with the added gift of wood firing. Workshops and exhibitions abroad include Japan, America, and New Zealand. Work in many private and public collections. Past vice chairman of the CPA and a Crafts Council selected member.
