About the Artist/Facilitator 

Katie Almond produces unique and one-off porcelain pieces using a variety of slip casting and hand-building techniques. Each piece of her work is a canvas for decoration and collage as she carefully combines drawings with found, vintage ephemera. Katie is inspired by nostalgia, paper ephemera, vintage textiles and a love of drawing. She has always been fascinated by objects that have a history.
