About the Artist

Rare opportunity to visit private studio and purchase one off works direct from the artist. Lorraine is an established professional sculptor specialising in ceramics with work exhibited in UK, EU and internationally. New work from Shore Collection developed from NHS commissioned wall installation will be available for purchase plus ceramic vessels, sculptural wall pieces and statement jewellery.

Lorraine Robson is an established professional artist. She has over 30 years exhibiting work, undertaking arts residencies and tutoring. As an Edinburgh College of Art graduate her ceramic artworks, rooted in craft disciplines, are based solidly in fine art traditions.

Robson employs hand-building ceramic methods of production such as coiling, pinching, slab construction, slump moulding and altering. Recent work relies on multiples; slip cast elements in clay, Alpha K and cold cast resin from plaster or silicon moulds produced from her ceramic originals.

The ideas informing her work are derived from her observations in life and nature. Whether vessel or wall installation, inspiration is of equal importance as aesthetics and craftsmanship.

Her tactile sculptural ceramics and wall relief panels are deliberately abstract in nature but reference the objects and ideas that inform the work. “I strive to balance recognisable imagery in the abstraction to suggest a mood or themes. It’s important to allow the viewer to ‘read’ and relate to the ideas.”

Visitors to her studio can view her work with the unique opportunity to learn about the ideas and techniques she employs in their creation.

All the work displayed during the event is available for purchase.
