Catherine and Matt West work together under their studio name Pottery West. Their pots are wheel-thrown in stoneware and fired both in reduction and oxidation. Drawing on previous experience in design and architecture, their pots are subtle, meticulously detailed and simple forms often used in a functional context. There is an interplay and tension between perfection and consistency and the looser more poetic quality of the human touch in craft. Their pots often contain facets, carefully calculated crystalline or layered glazes or specific firing processes which add a sense of narrative and poetry.
