FREE ARTICLE | VESSELS FOR GHOSTS

'Ancient funerary ceramics preserve a material record of what past cultures hoped to protect and provide for, both in life and after death. They make me wonder what archaeologists in the future will infer about us when they dig up the remains of our material culture.'

@rosiemclachlan explains the rituals surrounding funeral ceramics and the impact they have had on her life, her practice and ultimately her relationship with death in the latest issue of Ceramic Review – the full article is available to read for free on our website.

The exhibition will run until December 2026 and all the artworks can be viewed online.
