What we do
State Ceramics is committed to preserving and advancing the art of studio ceramics through education, research, and cultural initiatives - study and appreciation.
Our primary objective is to support and help develop the literary canon of standard works in studio ceramics, which currently has a deficit compared to other areas of the arts.
Here, we look to support:
- Creation of archives such as oral histories
- Sourcing and digitising existing writing and research materials
- Publishable PhDs and post-doctoral fellowship work
- In-depth, scholarly research for makers’ monographs and other book or essay projects
- New voices in critical writing
Our ancillary objective is to encourage and facilitate public appreciation of studio ceramics through exhibitions, lectures, workshops and panel discussions.
