Maker of the Week - Robert Wickens

SCS Maker Robert Wickens finds spontaneity is an important factor. Working with loose sketches he responds to the clay, building and surface decoration is an instinctive process. Rob uses slips and oxides and scores into the clay using a sgraffito technique. 

Rob is inspired by the simplicity of Japanese and Korean ceramics and their ability to demonstrate beauty within imperfection with the juxtaposition of traditional and modern simplicity.
