Carroll, Simon
We’re working on releasing this image.
Simon Carroll’s unconventional approach to pottery was a celebration of imperfection. His work has been described as ‘wild and wicked’, exuberant and playful, as breaking all the rules. These deliberately unbalanced forms were assembled from wheel-thrown and press-moulded sections, then painted with coloured slips and glazes.
