Positioning Ceramic Design Practices into Gallery-Based Creative Industries

Abstract

Cognizant of the nature and need of a creative industries market. In ceramic, the diversity can be seen in the types of production and the scale of manufacture - from 'one-offs' to industrial manufacture. The scope and nature of arts incubators encompass the business-related knowledge, skills, and orientation needed by artists. The established methodologies for practice-based ceramic design research have led to the development of a realistic approach within this work which is both holistic and emergent. As result, a link between a practical philosophy of 'craft' practice and new approaches to the design highlighted a perception of the validity of 'craft' as a contemporary skill.
