Alice Boden - Tweedmatters

Based on the shore of Loch Broom in the north west Highlands of Scotland, I design and make a range of framed collages and greetings cards which are also suitable for framing. I like to use my own handmade papers, Harris Tweed and other materials. I think of them as small mementos of the bigger picture.

Alisdair McKay (Creative Woodworker)

Cutting the wood into thin slices, often across the grain reveals the maximum richness, I construct forms where the resultant sequence, is the focus in sculpture, featured in boxes and vessels or a detail in furniture. With an allusion to movement or softness I juxtaposition textures, colour and form, introducing with other joining materials the illusion of precariousness or tenuousness. / I work functionally and creatively, speculatively and to commission, for private or commercial clients and galleries from the workshop which I established in 1984.

Allison Weightman - Ceramics

Primarily working in hand-built Raku fired vessel forms, Allison lives and works on the North West Coast of Scotland.

What makes her work unique is that before putting her ceramics in to the kiln, she shoots the un-fired clay with a 12 bore shotgun. This technique produces an effect that is impossible to recreate in any other way.

Her pieces show the damage a gun can cause on something that has taken time, effort and creativity to make, drawing parallels with the effects of gun crime and war on the lives of innocent people.

Amanda J Simmons

Amanda designs and makes kiln formed and cameo engraved glass for architectural, interior and sculptural settings.

Current inspiration includes looking at botanicals used in the pharmaceutical industry and plants which are toxic, linking to my first Pharmacology degree, and continuing to exploit the properties of gravity within the kiln whilst making unique vessels.
