MEET THE MAKER

Celia Dowson

Celia Dowson is a London-based artist working across ceramics and cast glass. Informed by movements in nature, her work reflects the colours, the changing light, and mystery of the natural world.

Within this practice, she explores the interplay between fluidity and form aligning with the transformative qualities of materials. Here she integrates techniques across the two mediums, disrupting traditional technical approaches through the adaptation of tools and processes, often shaping the distinct qualities and movements captured within her work. The finished pieces encompass the study of colour and translucency through gradation and opacity and light. Through these qualities her work creates a contemplative space to reflect upon the rhythms of the atmosphere, and our innate connection to the objects we use and spaces we inhabit.

As well as making work for exhibitions and private collections, Celia works closely with a number of restaurants creating limited edition ceramic and glassware. These include Pétrus by Gordon Ramsay, the Mandarin Oriental Palace in Switzerland and the London Peninsular.

Celia Dowson is a graduate of the Royal College of Art (2018), where she specialised in both ceramics and cast glass. Prior to this she completed her BA Hons. (2014) in Ceramic Design from the University of the Arts London, Central Saint Martins. She has received a number of awards including a Bullseye Glass Award (2022), Wallpaper* Design Award (2020), FRANZ Rising Star Award (2019) and the Charlotte Fraser Award (2018). She received the Tom Helme Scholarship from the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust, in 2017. Dowson exhibits internationally and her work is included in three museum collections including the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, Bullseye Projects, USA and The New Taipei City Yingge Ceramic Museum, Taiwan.
