The interaction between the sea and the land has been the inspiration for colours, textures and form in Craig’s most recent works. The colours of the sea, sand, pebbles and rock formations, the movement of the water as the sea rolls onto the beach or crashes on the rocks. Many pieces are decorated to emulate seascapes or landscapes.
Craig is fascinated by form, incorporating various shapes into each piece: cones, spheres, cylinders and discs. His intentional layering of glazes creates a wonderful array of textured surfaces, exploring matte and gloss, rough and smooth all in one piece. Craig is captivated by the interconnectedness and contrast of natural and manmade worlds, and infuses this into all his works. Craig's ceramic pieces are all wheel thrown, electric fired stoneware, produced from his studio in Frome Somerset. Some of his vessels are composite forms – a mix of two or more elements – and others are cut and altered, the pieces are then glazed and fired to 1250°C.
He marries beauty with functionality to create these wonderful sculptural bodies of work, decorated with layered glazes that can be used as vases or simply as a beautiful object to enjoy.
