Carol Sinclair

Carol is an artist and maker based in Forfar, Scotland. Since graduating from Grays School of Art in Aberdeen, she has developed her practice from tile making to creating forms and vessels with porcelain. Her work is hand built using slabs of clay which are rolled, cut and hand formed.

She has always combined her ceramics practice with her work in arts and business consultancy. This mix has enabled her to work closely with artists, makers and designers from diverse cultures around the world, and influences the themes she explores in her ceramics.

“I love experimenting with clay and my making process is a way to work through my ideas and communicate my thoughts. I believe that hand making is an ancient and fundamental human activity that can transcend cultural divides. Hand crafted objects express our identity, while the process of making can enhance our health and well-being. This process allows me to create my shapes with the flexibility to inlay colours using my signature techniques.”
