Krishna Alageswaran

I have a lifelong fascination with the animal kingdom and I respond playfully by making birds, seals, whales and other animals, as well as incorporating bird imagery in my sculptural works. I have recently completed a frog and toad public sculpture for the family trail at Whirlow Hall, situated in the brook.

I specialise in hand-building sculptural forms, with complex, textured and patterned surfaces achieved by applications of layers of slip, oxides and dry glazes and through multiple firings.

I also slab build boxes, towers and vessels, influenced by architecture, ancient cultures and the relationship between the natural and the urban world. The surfaces on the ceramic vessels reference the passing of time on the human landscape.

My studio will be open 11am – 5pm for visits on the following days:

• Saturday May 3rd
• Sunday May 4th
• Monday May 5th
• Saturday May 10th
• Sunday May 11th

It is situated on a busy road with shops and cafes providing refreshments with a number of studios within walking distance. I will be sharing with 2 other artists.

• Visitors to the studio will be able to buy my work
• I’m happy to undertake commissions – please ask!
• Workshops and tuition are available
