A full-time ceramicist since 1988, exhibiting across the UK and abroad — mostly thrown work, increasingly with handbuilt and extruded elements.
Simon Shaw was a production potter until choosing to become a full-time, self-employed ceramicist in 1988. Since that time he has exhibited widely across the UK, and has also worked and exhibited in Greece, Bermuda, Bequia and Norway.
Most of his work is thrown, but more recently he has been incorporating handbuilt and extruded elements. He teaches a throwing module at Wrexham University, and was the "hands" that produced the thrown images and finished pieces for all the throwing projects in the book accompanying the TV series The Great Pottery Throwdown.
