Fiona Swepson

Fiona Swepson is a Lincolnshire-based potter who creates wheel-thrown porcelain functional ware with a focus on texture and craftsmanship. Working primarily with porcelain, Fiona combines traditional techniques with a contemporary approach, bringing each piece to life through a delicate balance of form and texture.

The texture on each piece is achieved through the intricate art of slip trailing, a technique that involves applying liquid clay in fine, controlled patterns onto the surface. This adds a unique tactile quality to the work, creating a sense of movement and depth. The finished pieces are both beautiful and functional, designed to enhance daily life with a touch of artistry.

 

Fiona’s pottery is all about creating beautiful, everyday pieces that are both practical and enjoyable to use. Each item is designed to be a part of daily life, whether it’s a mug you reach for every morning or a bowl you use at dinner. The combination of thoughtful design and handmade craftsmanship brings a little extra joy to the simple moments of life.

For the upcoming Open Studios weekend, I’ll be stepping out of my home studio and joining a fantastic mix of other Deepford artists to showcase our work together. It’s a great chance to see a variety of creative styles in one place, chat with artists about their process, and just soak in all the inspiration. Hope to see you there!
