Cockpit Arts - Deptford

Today I braved the big smoke to check out those talented folks at the Coskpit Arts. Having been to their Christmas open studios in Holborn last year I took the opportunity to see the Deptford studios on their 25th anniversary. Both times I have just been overwhelmed by how fantastically talented the artists are. It seems like a great community too.

I'll start with Katherine Morling because her work is just so unusual it's like nothing I have seen before and just made me smile. It's all porcelain but it looks kind of like paper - you just have to touch it!

Next, Sophie Cook who makes these stunning vases. I'd love a set of these as together they have such a visual impact.

Lastly, another ceramacist! Billy Lloyd who recently won the Cockpit Arts Award to get free studio space. This is minimalism at its best.
