OUR ARTIST OF THE MONTH IS
ceramicist - JANIE PRIDHAM
Janie Pridham is a ceramicist making socially topical work, allowing each topic to shape her approach. This body of work explores homelessness in the UK, with a focus on people who find themselves having to live on the street. The intention is for viewers to be drawn to the patterns and colours, the narrative only unfolding upon closer inspection, inviting consideration of the human right to be adequately housed and evoking empathy for the difficulties faced by far too many people in getting a safe, warm night’s sleep.
