CERAMICS

  • maria lintott

Maria is excited by the expressive potential of tableware. She is interested in how we form emotional attachments to objects and her work explores and encourages this interaction. Her key objective is to create functional objects that bring something special to our day-to-day lives. Her bone china collections use form and texture to invite the user to engage in a conversation with the work, through the sense of touch. She references ceramic traditions which often provoke curiosity.

Her ‘Skylight’ collection is a bone china table light for full length candles. This piece also has a relief image and as the candle burns different parts of it are illuminated. She has recently developed some smaller Skylights for tea lights and some new designs where she has hand applied 'sprigs' to create the Bloom Lights. Maria's handmade collections are all slip-cast in bone china and are available in a variety of colours.

Maria has an MA from the Royal College of Art in Ceramics and Glass and first class honours degree from Central Saint Martins.
