Tom Fewing who has recently graduated from 3D Design and Craft BA(Hons) was chosen by the national charity for crafts for his collection which captures the lives of a loved one.

Tom’s collection of stoneware pots and plates use techniques such as slip decoration, saggar firing and glazing with iron spangles to create personal stories. The larger vessels are made with personal belongings and DNA burnt into the surface, ensuring the physical object is both literally and aesthetically representative of their life.
