David Sproxton

My practice revolves around handcrafting stoneware vessels using locally sourced ancient clay. This process is not just about creating art; it's a journey of connection with the environment. By seeking out and gathering raw materials from the landscape, I forge a tangible link with the geological formations that have shaped the land over millennia. Each vessel I create serves as a testament to this connection, embodying the essence of the environment from which it was born. Through my work, I aim to convey the beauty and importance of our natural surroundings, inviting viewers to contemplate the intricate relationship between humanity and the Earth.
