Urban ceramics

Jump to Comments

I ventured down to Brick Lane on Sunday for the annual Car Boor Fair @ The Old Truman Brewery. There were plenty of stalls and original ideas to keep me amused – but i really loved the new jewellery designers and artisits i discovered. One photographer – Alice Mara – takes the most stunning pictures of the urban landscape and uses a computer to enhance their surreal appeal. She then transfers them onto plates, mugs, bowls and serving dishes so you can display a little piece of London at home whenever you wish. Like mini, decorative forms of art they are instantly recognisable with familar streets and skylines.
