Gail Altschuler

Blurring the lines between art and craft.
The storytelling porcelain wall hanging display plates, are illustrated with sketchbook observations. They each have a wall hanging disc attached on the back. Using clay or porcelain as the canvas, Gail creates narrative plates. The themes include zoom meetings, refugees, masks, musicians, buddha sculptures, children at play and objects drawn while visiting museums.
Building her porcelain pieces by hand, she high fires them. The process involves graphic procedures, combining Mishima, inlay techniques, with sgraffito and coloured washes, all under a transparent glaze. The hand drawn lines are etched using a sharp pin needle tool and filled with underglaze. Gail Altschuler works from her home/ studio in North London. Art history, drawing and ceramics are lifelong passions.
She studied Art and Design, Fine Art, History of Art and has an MA is Art and Design Education. She teaches ceramics, art and art history to adults, teens and children. 2022 Prize Winner for Wales Contemporary.
