Jack Doherty
Porcelain ceramics
Saturday 7 July – Sunday 16 September 2018
with paintings by Alex Lowery and furniture by Petter Southall
We are delighted to show a major collection of Jack Doherty’s porcelain ceramics. A highly eminent ceramicist whose work shows nationally and internationally, each of Jack’s timeless vessels is a pleasure to behold.
Irish potter Jack Doherty lives and works from his home and studio in Mousehole, Cornwall, overlooking the sea. He makes porcelain vessel forms that are thrown on the potter’s wheel then carved and shaped when the clay is soft to reflect the fluidity of the material and physicality of making. The elemental colour and surface texture are created by the fusion of fire and soda in the intense heat of the kiln, leaving behind a subtle palette of smokey grey, lemon, russet and turquoise.
