I’m absolutely thrilled to be part of this extra

I’m absolutely thrilled to be part of this extraordinary exhibition next year 🌀 mark it in your calendar!Posted @withregram • @fifecontemp What's On in March 2025? 💫 We're so excited to announce that "Hag. Knowledge, Power & Alchemy through Craft" will be coming to Dunfermline Carnegie Library and Galleries on International Womens Day, 8th March! 🫂

Our exhibition seeks to reclaim and redefine the term ‘Hag’ for the current age by celebrating the strength, wisdom, activism, rebelliousness and creativity of craftswomen. The exhibition has ambitious aims to challenge societal prejudices and foster a deeper understanding of the rich tapestry of experiences that women who engage intensively with their craft bring to contemporary culture.

Celebrate the knowledge, power and alchemy of work by 13 of Scotland’s most inventive, creative and impactful women craft artists: Lise Bech, Judith Davies, Caroline Dear, Claire Heminsley, Fiona Hutchison, Ruth Elizabeth Jones, Gilly Langton, Jo McDonald, Susie Redman, Patricia Shone, Carol Sinclair, Amanda Simmons and Emma Louise Wilson.

Curated by Kate Pickering and supported by OnFife and the William Grant Foundation.

The raku fired surface graduates from paler greys and browns, to dark grey and black. In the centre is large white text that reads "HAG." and below in smaller italics "Knowledge, Power & Alchemy Through Craft".

Here’s a few more pictures of the iconic corner window @fortnums Fortnum & Mason 181, Piccadilly, London. My smoke-fired vessel was chosen to complement the display created by @thecreativedimension The Creative Dimention Trust give young folk in London the chance to take part in high quality creative craft workshops and @lucyjnewman worked with students over the summer to create the beautiful Japanese Ikebana style embroidered flowers. The Japanese theme was also expressed through Suminagashi marbled silk panels, workshops lead by @rocworxdesigns and Japanese solid hard wood beech stools lead by @newschooloffurniture. The display is on for another week so do have a look if you’re in London. It’s so encouraging to see young folk having opportunities to work with inspirational highly skilled makers. Many thanks Lucy for featuring my vessel 🙏 #smokefiredceramics #handbuiltceramics #ruthelizabethjones #craft #contemporarycraft

I’m thrilled to have one of my smoke-fired vessels included in this fantastic display in London at Fortnum & Mason’s corner window! Posted @withregram • @thecreativedimension This year’s TCDT’s collaboration with @fortnums for their corner window display, curated by @simon_costin and themed around Japanese art and culture, showcases three distinct elements developed in workshops during the summer holidays, from our Marbling Workshop, Furniture Making Workshop, and the Embroidery Workshop.

We are incredibly grateful to all our students for joining us in our ongoing journey to bring hand based skills to different communities and spaces, as well as for our amazing tutors bringing their craft and expertise to our project. @lucyjnewman @newschooloffurniture @rocworxdesigns

The Creative Dimension Trust is always looking for new funding to support and expand its programmes, ensuring more young people can benefit from these enriching experiences.

The beautiful vase for the display was made by the very talented @ruth_elizabeth_jones (thank you!!)

I wanted to show some images of the clay bead making workshop that I lead @campleline last week. We were invited to make terracotta beads by Chiara Camoni, who has a solo show at Cample Line ‘Murmur, buzz hiss and rub’ opening on 5.10 - 15.12.24. Our beads will form part of one of her monumental ‘sister’ sculptures in the exhibition. I worked with members of the local community to shape clay into sculptural bead forms, I then fired them and along side @hetallateh we assembled them into strings, the resulting forms seemed to take on a life of their own with echos of ancient creatures snaking across the table! Many thanks to all who came along and to staff at Cample for organising #campleline #chiaracamoni #ruthelizabethjones #claysculpture #murmurbuzzhissandrub #ceramicart #ceramicworkshop

Ruth Elizabeth Jones’ own affinity with clay has been lifelong. After studying in the Midlands in the 1980s, she established studios firstly in Derby and then in rural Southwest Scotland where she continues to live and work.⁠
⁠
Ruth’s ceramic practice centres on the vessel form. She builds clay vessels using coil-building techniques that date back to matriarchal Neolithic pottery cultures, and her work makes ongoing reference to the female ceramic record.⁠
