About the Artist

Rare opportunity to visit private studio and purchase one-off ceramic vessels, jewellery and wall relief works direct from the artist. Edinburgh College of Art graduate, Lorraine, is an established professional Sculptor specialising in Ceramics with works exhibited and held in collections in UK, EU and internationally.

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. Recipient of Creative Scotland Awards.

Robson employs traditional 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 plaster 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 sculptural wall relief panels and ceramic vessels 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 work and also have the unique opportunity to learn about the ideas and techniques she employs in the creation and development of unique artworks.

Visitors can also discuss and arrange one to one or small group ceramic or casting workshops with Lorraine.
