ARTIST PROFILES
 
 

Helen Harrison

Devon-based Helen studied Art and Design at Loughborough College of Art, specialising in ceramics, followed by a master’s degree at the Royal College of Art.

The Oxide Decal Collection is inspired by combing the shoreline for lost treasures and sea-worn pottery. The collection imbues a sense of Chinoiserie or patterned ceramic tiles worn underfoot, conjuring memories of a forgotten tea service from childhood or a beloved Victorian artifact. The mosaic-like appearance evokes a new story each time the pieces are used, intriguing the observer, and allowing them to create their own story.

Each piece is made from porcelain and finished with clear, and coloured food-safe glazes, The forms are hand-thrown, and the surfaces are treated with layered oxides, decals, slips, and imprints, making each piece unique.
