David Binns
My carved and glazed ceramic forms evolve through an intuitive engagement with clay, involving both accident and control. I draw (indirect) inspiration from the contrasting shapes and textures found in contemporary architecture and the natural landscape. Shaped by a deep respect of Japanese aesthetics, I strive to make work that has visual beauty whilst conveying a sense of quietness and simplicity. I have participated in numerous UK and international exhibitions, workshops and symposium and my work is featured in many international collections and publications.
