Imogen’s commitment to sustainability in her making and firing methods is inspirational. She uses wild clays and wood ash for glazes and in 2024 she built a fast-fire Philosphers’s kiln here in Devon which fires on waste wood.

Her work is a response to the ongoing climate emergency, trying to find a way forward as a maker, as an artist and as a citizen of the planet we call home. Her inspiration comes from nature and the ancient Japanese kilns of Bizen and Shiguraki, and traditional and contemporary Korean Buncheong.

Imogen will present a slide show and demonstrate her intriguing upside-down coiling method.

This will be a small group gathering in our lovely Dartmoor studio. Come and be inspired & meet up with other potters. Bring your Clay Mates!

Refreshments will be provided (or you can arrive early and queue to buy bread/pastries at the Van du Pain in Moretonhampstead Square).

The session will be £45 with any profit after studio and speaker fees going to a charity of the speaker’s choice.
