I’m so excited to have been selected by @craftscotland to show my work @collectartfair. Comet Trail Moon Jar and some of her sisters will be winging their way down to London in March, many thanks to the fantastic @shannontofts for my stunning new images, more to follow! 🙏 Posted @withrepost • @craftscotland ✨ Craft Scotland at Collect 2023 Reveal ✨ Ruth Elizabeth Jones @ruth_elizabeth_jones

Ceramicist Ruth is based in Dumfries & Galloway. She makes clay vessels, coil-building and refining with meditative focus, striving for harmony of form and surface. Ruth is fascinated by the distant echoes of shapes from the past: pottery made in matriarchal societies, used for food and long forgotten ritual practices.

Ruth is one of 10 makers participating in the Craft Scotland Showcase at Collect 2023 (@collectartfair). We’ll be revealing the rest of the participating makers throughout the day right here on Instagram.

Collect 2023 will open to the public at Somerset House in London between Fri 3 - Sun 5 Mar 2023, with previews on Wed 1 & Thurs 2 Mar 2023. The in-person event in London will be followed by an online showcase on @artsy, with more details to follow.

Organised by the Crafts Council (@craftscouncil), the fair welcomes audiences from international galleries and artists to collectors and craft enthusiasts.

I’m super excited to have Holding Vessel 12 featured in @throwncontemporary Winter Exhibition 22/23, launching online on 17th November - 29th Jan. This hand-selected show brings together work by over 120 artists and makers at www.throwncontemporary.co.uk. Holding Vessel 12 is coil built from white textured clay and evokes a holding and containing space, feminine with a wide belly, almost egg like, tranquil and hopeful, holding promise.
