Laura Huston's ceramics are tactile, handmade pieces with markings - Sgraffito - which translated from Italian means, "to scratch". The surface of the clay is scratched away when the clay is hard to reveal the natural clay colour below.
Laura is great influenced by and admires the work of John Ward, Lucie Rie, Ian Godfrey, and Korean Buncheong ware for their timeless beauty, the ancient quality of their work and the way the decoration is integral to the pots.
All of Laura Huston's pieces are completely unique and have a lovely subtleness to them. She decided on a career change nearly 10 years ago when working in the art departments lost its attraction though her central role of making led her to take a series of pottery courses in London, studying at Morley, Kensington & Chelsea and City Lit.
