“Only the heartless would be able to resist Rankin’s pottery. Brightly coloured and a bit wonky, her creations remind me of the best efforts of a gifted yet slightly disturbed child” Hugo Guinness (The New York Times - T Magazine)

Childhood adventures taking in the ceramics collections at the V&A Museum quickly imbedded in Claudia Rankin a love for the stories, colours and patterns of ceramics through the ages. She has mastered a traditional approach, with her own fun and unexpected narratives - a Georgian tea caddy may appear as just that until you look at little closer...

 

Claudia Rankin's ceramics been exhibited internationally in New York, Los Angeles, Amsterdam and London. She is represented by WSJ Gallery.  

 

With works that never fail to hide her love of animals and the natural world - and all manner of grins and grimaces - Claudia has been sure to produce ceramics that draw one in, make us smile, ask to be giggled at - and look wonderfully wacky on the mantelpiece!
