- Adam Buick – Moon Jars
Adam Buick took part in the Autumn 2010 Showcase Exhibition within Form Contemporary Craft. Both his small moon jars and larger pieces were very well received and very popular. His work is now widely collected.
Adam is a ceramic artist based in Pembrokeshire on the west coast of Wales. From his pottery studio near St.Davids he creates his unique wood fired ceramics thrown at the potters wheel.
“The shapes I throw are based on Moon Jars, a Korean form from the Choson Dynasty originally made from plain white porcelain. I was struck by their serenity and simplicity. This pure jar form has become my canvas, into which I incorporate selected sources of local materials such as clays, rocks and seaweeds. I am inspired to do this through a fascination with landscape and how the resources within it can be utilised.”
