Martin McWilliam

I make coil/slab-built Stoneware "Trompe-l'œil" objects, coloured with kaolin slips all wood-fired in a 6 ku/m chamber kiln. I define my vessels as being 'pots in essence' whose raison d'être is the balance between form and surface. They seem to have depth and volume but on closer inspection are almost flat. They give the idea of simple bowls and jars, of a tradition that has given me a lifelong fascination, but take them into another space of the mind.
