It is our aim in this exhibition to illustrate the advantages of establishing direct connections between individual designer-makers, such as ourselves, and the individual 'consumers' of wider local, national and international societies. We also wish to emphasise our craft’s relevance to everyday life, as we believe that made-to-order ceramics can be life-enhancing.

Ceramics as used for wall surfaces are normally perceived in a mass-produced context; here we offer an alternative to this perception. Through this exhibition we seek to inform our visitors that they have a real alternative to 'shopping' for mass-produced goods. Almost anyone can gain immense satisfaction from collaborating with an artist in the creation of a personal work of art. The result can cost less than you might expect.
