Laura Lee works from her studio at Hall Farm Gardens in Lincolnshire where she creates contemporary ceramics with a meticulous attention to form.
Her work centres on the Raku firing process — a space where intention meets unpredictability.
Once the vessels leave the wheel, she releases them into the volatile alchemy of fire, smoke, and organic matter.
Based in amongst the beautiful location of Hall Farm Gardens she experiments using wildflower cuttings gathered from the gardens which become combustibles in the kiln.
These interventions produce unpredictable reactions that yield iridescent, metallic, and translucent glaze outcomes.
Each ceramic piece carries the imprint of place, season, and the excitement of Raku.
Laura graduated in 2024 with a First-Class BA (Hons) Fine Art & Crafts having specialised in ceramics.
Since graduating she quickly gained gallery representation across various galleries & museums across the UK and was a finalist in the SCAF Emerging Artist Award 2025. An award created to acknowledge up and coming artists in the Yorkshire area.
She was recently selected for The Radcliffe Trust Mentoring Scheme for 2026 delivered by Design Nation and will exhibit in Crafted Futures a group exhibition in the OXO gallery as part of London Design Festival this Autumn 2026.
A member of Crafts Council Directory, Design Nation & Society of Designer Craftsmen MSDC.
Keen to promote a sustainable practice her studio is fuelled entirely by renewable energy.
