The Collect Open runs alongside the usual gallery presentations and showcases concept-driven and experimental craft works selected by a panel led by designer Faye Toogood. Collect Open offers a unique opportunity for artists to challenge traditional perceptions of craft and design.
Claire created a beautiful ceramic installation for the Colect open. View more of her work on her website: Claire Curneen – Ceramicist
