Ceramicist of the Month – Emma-Louise Wilson

Our Ceramicist of the Month is Emma-Louise Wilson. Emma has been with us since we started nearly 5 years ago, and this month we are highlighting an amazing new range of work by her called “Roots”.

Hopefully you will be able to get an opportunity to visit us to see and enjoy these pieces and all the other work we have by Emma.

“Roots” is an homecoming – both to my native Cumbria and to the stoneware clay where my ceramic journey first began.

First inspired by the rugged textures of the Lake District, this collection explores the relationship between stone and time.

Each piece draws directly from the landscape: the ancient, lichen-encrusted dry-stone walls and the nuanced palette of weathered minerals found across the fells.

Highly intricate details and small porcelain features are embedded throughout the work, creating areas of focus and contrast.
