'Sitting down at the wheel and grasping a ball of clay, I can travel back in time. I'm compelled to slow down to the pace of my ancestors.'
Did you know that the potter's wheel was being used before any other kind of wheel? From wine jars to ink pots, Keith enthrals and entertains us with his passion for pottery and potters, what they made and how they did it. He shows us how ceramics have played an important role in history and culture - and how his own life is inextricably linked to an industry that demands the same of its makers today as it did thousands of years ago: creativity, patience and respect for the material. You will never look at a mug in the same way again.
Keith Brymer Jones is a British potter and ceramic designer, internationally known for his homeware 'Word' range and celebrated as the lead judge on the TV show The Great Pottery Throwdown and for the Our Welsh Chapel Dream television series.
