Virginia Graham

Virginia’s ceramics are an eclectic amalgamation of nostalgic form and imagery, drawing on her interest in collecting and the ability of objects to symbolise identity, memory and culture.

Her pieces range from teapots and cups to jewellery, as well as one-off larger pieces incorporating precious stones, metal and found objects.

Virginia uses slip casting and hand building techniques creating pieces in her signature style. Their surface decoration includes slip painting, transfer printing and metallic lustre’s, making reference to historical wares such as Cornish Ware as well as industrial plumbing and Victorian fabrics. The resulting pieces are precious with a playful humour yet at the same time ordinary and familiar, reminding us of a bygone era.
