If you’re interested in learning to screen print onto fabric I have an open class coming up on Saturday 25th March 2-4.30pm.
£50 per person with discounts if booking extra places. It’s a small class for up to 4 people. You’ll learn all the basics and go home with your own amazing print! Link in bio under workshops on my website. Private classes are also available. Just get in touch. It’s so much fun, very addictive (I’ve been at it for nearly 30 years!!) 
Head over to @screenprintn16 for more inspiration from past students top prints!

Ikuko Iwamoto 
Ghosts from the sea, I
2023
Porcelain
Found wooden antique object
H 49cm x W 34cm x D 8.5cm

Growing up near seaside in Japan, on a diet of mainly pescatarian food, this sculpture arose from Ikuko’s serious concerns about the damage caused by high sea bottom trawling which Japanese experts are calling for an end to, due to irreparable damage to vulnerable deep-sea ecosystems.

These are the ‘ghosts’ whose homes are either being destroyed by it or are caught for nothing because they’re not fit for market or killed by plastic waste.

As soon as Ikuko Iwamoto showed us this new sculpture we knew we had to show it at Collect. Her skill and imagination have come together in this poignant work that harks back to her roots in Japan where she trained under ceramic master Asuka Tsuboi, one of the pioneering women potters to emerge in Japan in the 1970s, before coming to London encouraged by Tsuboi to study at Camberwell and the RCA

This piece is a culmination of everything we love about Ikuko’s work. She creates work with sensitivity, wit, patience, incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail. 

As Jane Audas @janeaudas said in @ceramicreview ‘It is that ability to make us look twice at a piece that sets Iwamoto’s work apart. If she needed a strap line for her practice, it might be: expect the unexpected.’

See this work and more by Ikuko Iwamoto @ikukoikik @craftscouncil @collectartfair 3-5 March (previews 1-2 March) @somersethouse room W17 West Wing

These vases are based on 2D shapes. This unusual process of making is a big challenge for me to see how far I can go with shapes without relying on her usual 3D thinking, and of course without losing its functionality. Now I’ve got 50 different shapes.
