About The Artist

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)
