John
Ward - Biography
One of Britains best known
and most widely respected living potters,
John Ward has produced a body of work
comprised of mainly coil built stoneware
vessel forms, generally favoring matte
glazes and hand applied oxides. Each piece
is hand built of flattened coils; some
are then cut and rejoined, incised with
a pattern or burnished with pebbles. They
are then twice fired in an electric kiln.
Born
1938 in Islington, London, he trained
at East Ham Technical College and Camberwell
School of Art during the 1960s.
He started his first workshop
in London in 1971, and and is currently
working at his own studio near Newport
in Wales.
