Katherine Kingdon (Fatbellypots)

Katherine works under the name ‘Fatbellypots’ which is your first indication that she has a fun imagination. Each piece is full of character and storytelling. The figures seem to be caught mid action with a sense of playful ambiguity. She has a firm grounding in ceramics and teaching and keeps a lively sketchbook. ‘My work is a celebration of ‘in the moment’ creative decisions and storytelling. I like to leave an element of ambiguity in the surface imagery. To suggest a narrative, but to leave enough space for the viewer to dream’
