Michael Adcock

Michael Adcock and his wife Christine Adcock are known for ceramic vessels which incorporate natural plant material and other mixed media. Each piece is formed and finished by the pair working as a team.

Michael creates the pottery and collects the natural plant materials. After saggar or pit firing, Christine uses these plant materials to develop surface design elements using collage or inlay techniques.
