Tall Milk Churn Vase
£56.00
Kirsty, the Scottish maker behind KJA Studio Ceramics, studied textiles at Grays School of Art in Aberdeen. Following ten years of making textiles, Kirsty has used this skill set to inform her new direction into ceramics. Kirsty’s transition from cloth to clay has been challenging, exciting and ever changing, she learnt her craft through evening classes in Edinburgh and a lot of self-taught practice. For Kirsty, clay is a lifetime of learning and one that she loves to engage with every day.
Her ceramics are inspired by nature and the path it leaves behind on the landscape. The vessels themselves are simple shapes taken from Kirsty’s interest in the aesthetics of past objects - milk churns, chemistry beakers and enamel wear. These shapes will continue to inform each other as she grows and develops her practice.
