Ceramics
Sarah Purvey
Sarah Purvey's primary discipline is in ceramic sculpture, supported by a strong dynamic drawing and printmaking practice. " Sarah Purvey creates powerful, sculptural ceramics which combine monumentality and subtlety to unique effect. Her explorations of form, tonality and the possibilities of clay resolve themselves in large, engaging and instinctive vessels.”
-Sophie Cummings Swindon Museum and Art Gallery Curator 2016.
Purvey has had solo exhibitions in St Ives, Amsterdam and Bath and has shown widely in group exhibitions including New York and London. Purvey's work featured in the Threadneedle Prize Exhibition, The Society of Women Artists at the Mall Galleries London and The RWA open exhibition Bristol in 2016. Her work is represented by galleries both nationally and internationally.
Purvey completed an MA in ceramics at Bath Spa University in 2009 having completed her BA twenty years previously in 1991.
