Biography

Adam Ross is a ceramicist using pottery as a means of sculptural exploration. Driven to create pieces with their own personality, Adam has developed innovative techniques to produce his tableware and artworks, from slicing pieces with wire to unexpected glaze applications. Having trained in ceramics from an early age, Adam went on to study ceramics at the Glasgow School of Art.

Adam typically works from a potter’s wheel, throwing thick cylindrical forms before slicing the clay and applying glaze to transform the material into something unpredictable, sculptural, and one of a kind. While often repeating a particular glaze, shape and size, each individual object created by Adam will be unique owing to the hand-cut nature of his process.
