anne murray
designer - maker
Now living in the North East of Scotland, Anne studied at both Glasgow School of Art (BA in Ceramics) and Grays School of Art in Aberdeen (BA Hons in 3D Design).
In 1997 Anne was awarded a Churchill Fellowship by the Winston Churchill Memorial Trust. Her travel fellowship took her to Japan where she developed her interest in Japanese ceramics, aesthetics and design. This brief introduction to Japan formed the foundation of her approach to design and making.
She has recently been producing work for exhibitions as well as commissions. Attracted to the overlooked, under appreciated and quirky nature of everyday things her handmade work raises the profile of objects sometimes seen as mundane.
Her work is inspired by the idiosyncrasies of old tools and utility ware, the persistence of weeds and relationships between people and objects.
