Ally Powell is one of our tutors in the Harley Pottery Studio.
Ally is a contemporary ceramicist working from her home studio in Nottinghamshire. Her tangled slip-cast sculptures have been exhibited by the Crafts Council and sold internationally.
Her sculptural ceramics are suggestive of movement like a gestural brush stroke or scribble, or a snapshot of sparklers cutting through the air, a bold moment of joy captured in clay. Her work reinterprets the long-established ceramic process of slip-casting, subverting ideas surrounding mass production by creating one-off objects that endure.
She has guest lecturered at Nottingham Trent University, and her work has been featured in House Beautiful, Elle Decoration, and How to Spend it.
