Welcome to Ben Dodd Ceramics. I am an established studio ceramics potter, living, making and teaching in Nottingham, England. I produce small batch hand thrown pots that are reduction fired in a gas kiln.
My work is heavily inspired by the Anglo/Japanese studio ceramics tradition which can be traced back to the pioneering work of Shoji Hamada and Bernard Leach which began in the 1920’s.
