Join us in celebrating this extraordinary exhibition, supported by waste reduction advocate Joost Baker.
Taking place within ストア and the stunning surrounding gardens and grounds, each ceramic sculpture is meticulously crafted in コーン11‘s ceramics studio, using solar-powered electric kilns for sustainability. These unique artworks are made exclusively from non-recycled waste generated by the studio.
Witness the transformative power of high-temperature firing as clay evolves into breathtaking sculptural forms. Embrace the beauty of ceramic art and a “no waste” future.
Thursday 31 August, from 6pm
Celebrate the launch of this wonderful new exhibition in ストア. All are welcome, we’d love to see you there!

This is a rare opportunity to take an intimate journey with the artist into her distinctive world of making, with insights into how she has carved out thoroughly individual and unpredictable paths to success.
