'Meet the maker'

17 makers rooted in Cornwall come together to exhibit their own work inspired by the history and atmosphere of Wheal Martyn.

What binds us and holds us together is that we and our work are rooted in Cornwall and its materials.

The work on display reveals both individual works and new collaborations, in response to the material, the China Clay industry and the unique atmosphere of the Wheal Martyn site.

'Brought together by our love of clay, a profound interest in Cornwall's industrial heritage along with its effect on the landscape, nature and the people of Cornwall.

This is a ceramic focused exhibition with the addition of photographs, jewellery, metal, film & other materials.
