About the Artist
Stuart Carey, originally from Newcastle and now based in London, is a distinguished ceramicist known for his elegant tableware collections. His creative journey began at the age of fourteen when he was inspired by his teacher, Glyn Thomas, to pursue ceramics. After a BA at the Glasgow School of Art and an MA at the Royal College of Art, Stuart gained international recognition, winning two Designer of the Year awards.
After seven successful years of production, Stuart shifted his focus to education, co-founding The Kiln Rooms, the UK’s first open-access ceramics studio, which has inspired thousands to explore clay. His efforts have spurred the opening of over twenty similar studios nationwide. As an associate lecturer at Central Saint Martins and a senior consultant on Channel 4’s 'The Great Pottery Throw Down', Stuart champions the revival of interest in ceramics.
His book, 'From Clay to Kiln', aims to demystify clay for a broad audience. Now, with a new body of work titled 'Return to Form', Stuart is excited to re-enter the artistic sphere, marking a new chapter in his two-decade career.
