About the Artist
Julian Stair is a distinguished British ceramicist celebrated for his refined and profoundly contemplative approach to pottery. His practice primarily focuses on the creation of minimalist, monumental vessels—jars, bowls, and containers—that explore the fundamental relationship between form, function, and human ritual. Stair’s work is characterized by its impeccable craftsmanship, subtle glazes, and a deep respect for historical ceramic traditions. His pieces are not merely functional; they are objects of quiet contemplation, inviting viewers to consider notions of containment, emptiness, and the passage of time, asserting the enduring power and beauty found in elemental ceramic forms.
