Exeter ceramics Mid DevonRAMP – (Roop & Al Make Pots) is a creative collaboration between Rupert Johnstone & Alice Hartford. We make functional and decorative Earthenware and Porcelain studio ceramics.
When we first started working together in 2001, we developed a range of slip decorated earthenware using brushstrokes in layers, which we have continued to work on since then. Our aim has always been to make bright, cheerful and joyful pots that mix some of the traditions of slipware with a range of other influences from ceramics, painting and illustration. We also make a range of porcelain containers with recycled plastic lids and handbuilt sculptural works.
In 2018 we opened a new studio, Devon Applied Arts Workshop, with the stained glass craftsman Matt LeBreton of LeBreton Traditional. The studio is both a production and teaching space and we now host a growing community of makers in our workshop, teaching both regular general classes and specific technical and themed weekend workshops.
