Eastern European Influences
Edward King is a Plymouth-based ceramic artist specializing in stoneware clay. Renowned for his innovative glazing techniques, Edward incorporates raw materials such as sand and slate to create reactive and glossy finishes that bring a distinctive character to his work.
Influenced by his extensive travels across the Caucasus and Eastern Europe, Edward’s art reflects a fascination with abandoned spaces, brutalist design, and Soviet architecture, particularly the ways in which we interact with structures that have lost their social or political purpose.
Since beginning his ceramics journey in 2019, Edward has exhibited at prestigious events including London Design Week 2023, Art in Clay Farnham, Hever Castle, and Celebrating Ceramics in Oxford. His work is held in private collections across Europe and the UK, and in 2024, he showcased his talent on Channel 4’s Pottery Throw Down. Edward’s work continues to explore the intersection of material, form, and narrative.
