The collection showcases diverse works from seven celebrated artists, each of whom produce large-scale functional ceramic furniture and artwork pieces and are fascinated by exploring the limitless potential of clay. 

The exhibition invites viewers to consider how they interact with ceramics in everyday life, as a material used for a variety of functions such as in sinks and disc brakes.
