JADE THORSEN is a Melbourne based ceramicist working from her North Fitzroy studio. Her practice focuses on wheel-thrown functional wares that sit somewhere between design, batch production and craft.

Jade’s background in Industrial Design formed her interest in ceramics and more broadly craft and ideas of slow making - a methodology she explores through her pieces that place just as much importance on the process as the final object.

ALTERFACT is an experimental design studio created by Lucile Sciallano and Ben Landau in 2014. Since graduating from Design Academy Eindhoven in 2013, Lucile and Ben have worked in tandem on various projects in different mediums. Their collaboration has culminated in the creation of Alterfact Studio, a platform through which to conduct critical research with materials and data translated through the manufacture of ‘stuff’.

Alterfact’s practice is currently focused on the use of 3D printing in clay as a small batch manufacturing process. They push the boundaries of this traditionally plastic-based medium, and play with its connotations of utilitarianism and gimmickry, as it moves into a feasible reality.

KIRSTEN PERRY is a self-taught ceramicist working from her studio based in Preston, Melbourne. Working predominantly with slip cast mid-fired functional and non-functional vessels, Kirsten’s pieces pay homage to traditional ceramic forms. The bio-morphic forms are initially carved from foam or cardboard before being translated into ceramic, reflecting Kirsten’s background in Industrial design. Evidence of this transformation from one medium to another is kept, highlighting the texture of the foam and cardboard and often exaggerating the imperfections to celebrate the uniqueness of each piece. Kirsten also has a background in Gold and Silversmithing through Fine Arts training wh ich is often reflected in her work.

JOSEPH TURRIN is an artist, based in Sydney, NSW, Australia. His work traverses interest in both the history of ceramics and nature. Turrin’s approach to making is playful in manner, with coil-building the predominant technique used. His work is inspired by colours and textures of plants, animals and landscapes. The form and surface of each piece is a site for experimentation of both texture, colour and functionality. Some works reference the utilitarian shapes found throughout the long history of ceramics. whilst others remain functionally ambiguous. Turrin was awarded the Royal Doulton & UNSW Art & Design Award.(2016)

LA PETITE FABRIQUE DE BRUNSWICK is a Melbourne based ceramic studio created by artist Lucile in 2014. Lucile was born in the south of France and now works from her garden shed in Brunswick.

Slip cast techniques are used to create functional and sculptural bowls, cups and teapots that begin with a prototype used to make a mould to cast the iterations of each shape. Using pigments to colour the porcelain, Lucile applies patterns by hand to make each piece unique.
