Thrown was established in March 2018 in response to the current uprising of
ceramics within contemporary art. Fascinated by this age of alternative mediums,
the gallery seeks out distinctive contemporary art in its many forms with a
particular focus on the creativity currently turning to clay. The gallery
represents internationally acclaimed names alongside emerging talent, providing
a much-needed platform for makers finding their identity as artists. Originally
launched in a gallery space in Highgate, North London, in 2021 the gallery moved
out of this fixed physical space to focus on online & pop-up exhibitions - Join
our mailing list to be kept updated on all future plans. The gallery was set up
by gallery director Claire Pearce who has been working in galleries since
graduating from a degree in Architecture in 2010. Five years spent in St Ives,
Cornwall, first introduced her to ceramics as an art form, which has been a
passion ever since.
