I have found a new hobby 😍 when I signed up for a pottery workshop I didn’t think I would be able to make anything. Violet @potteryintheyard was a fabulous tutor as was her assistant Karen. I made 4 pots and can’t wait to see what they look like once glazed. I’ll definitely be going back for more, I’ve got the bug!

Doing something that takes your mind off absolutely everything is so good for your well-being. It is important in our busy lives to make time for ourselves. What do you do to relax?

I’ve spent the last few years making work that moves fast. Quick turnarounds, short form content, optimised for the scroll. And I enjoy it. But somewhere along the way I started to miss the feeling of just sitting with something.
FORM is my answer to that.

It’s a short film about a ceramicist. The repetition, the patience, the small decisions that go into making something by hand. Just the sounds of the process, the music.

It’s also 16:9 Widescreen. Horizontal. Because not everything needs to be vertical.

We’re all moving fast right now. Phones out, thumbs scrolling, half watching everything and fully watching nothing. I’m as guilty of it as anyone.

So this is me asking you to stop for five minutes. Put it on full screen. Let it be slow.

FORM is the first in People Round Here, an ongoing series of short films I’m making in between client work, shining a spotlight on the people and makers of Margate. More to come.

FORM is on YouTube now - link in bio.

Here’s the fail 😩

I loved the shape of this pot and was so excited to trim it. I’ve been very reluctant to really go for it for fear of ruining tmy pieces. On this occasion I decided to throw a little too much caution to the wind.

Then this happened! 😩

Every fail is something learnt ☺️
