Demelza
Whitley
Demelza completed a degree in contemporary crafts at university college Falmouth in 2008. She creates her work in a white stoneware clay from St Agness, Cornwall. She then Raku fires the work.
Her work is a narrative and she is inspired by many things from overheard snippets of conversations to myths and legends.
Born in West Penwith Cornwall and raised on a small holding Demelza developed a love of animals from an early age. It is the dog that is her main muse and she is interested in our relationship with them. How we have evolved together and what that has meant for the dog and also for ourselves.
Rowan MacGregor
Rowan MacGregor makes delicate copper wreaths and other creations. She is inspired by her love of the British countryside and nature and this is reflected in her work. Each wreath is different and unique - Rowan want them to look like pressed flowers or bits of buried treasure that have been dug up after hundreds of years underground.
Rowan’s wreaths have been featured in Homes & Gardens, Ideal Home, Period Living, The Telegraph, Country Living and Landscape magazine.
Karen Parker
Working in silver and gold, Karen enhances the beauty and individuality of materials by forging, embossing and reticulating the metal, often giving part of a piece a contrasting surface texture. The reticulation technique, in particular, creates interesting effects suggestive of natural surface patterns such as the abstract decorative effects of lichen on stone. Karen has an eye for referencing these natural effects in her work resulting in beautiful organically inspired contemporary jewellery
Jane Littlefield
Jane’s work consists of stained glass panels that have multi – layered, painted glass images that are inspired by the Peak District, its nature, history and folklore.
"I use images of creatures, landscape features and organic motifs to create these glass panels."
The glass is hand painted using traditional stained glass paints and translucent enamels, often using many layers and textures, that are fired in the kiln. They are assembled using lead and solder.
