Dylan Bowen makes slip decorated earthenware using both traditional and contemporary materials and techniques. Dylan works on a small but ever mutating range of shapes, large platters, bowls and more sculptural forms. The clay can be thrown, cut, carved or hand built, then slips are poured, dipped or brushed on. Marks are made quickly using trailers while the layers of slip are still wet.
His work has its roots in traditional slipware, but with many contemporary influences. He aims to capture some of the dynamism and spontaneity of the making process in the finished work.
