Eye and Hand: Claudia Lis works on the wheel, using stoneware with a range of soft and subtle celadon glazes, some combining the delicate threaded effect of thin strands of iron. In this four-page feature, Andy Christian admires the understated sensibility of her work, highlighting how these are pots to contemplate as much as to use.
Ribbons of Colour: The small-scale table-top sculptures of Dutch ceramic artist Wouter Dam are made of coloured clay bands with fantastic curves, which twist and bend and flow, containing and enclosing space. In this four-page feature, Nesrin During is impressed by the skill and dexterity used to create these complex three-dimensional objects.
