25.01.2022 Barry Singleton's ceramics are Japanese inspired and yet uniquely his and the simplicity of his beautiful forms so gracefully balanced resonate the Japanese austerity. Singleton in fact worked and studied in Japan in 1976 with the master potter Katsu Yasa Ogawara, at Hashima kiln in Kurashiki, a region reknown for the Bizen style. Barry Singleton will be demonstrating throwing from the hump and tool making as part of the Clayspace Masterclass Series this Saturday 22nd October.
