Felicity Aylieff

Felicity Aylieff is one of the most innovative artists working in clay today. Her monumental vases provoke an immediate sense of awe, both through their scale (the tallest being 4.6 mtrs) and the expressive, yet considered, handling of surface decoration. Deeply-rooted within a context of traditional Chinese ceramic-making, yet immediately contemporary, her work can be found in some of the UK’s most prestigious public collections, including the V&A, the museum of Wales and the Devonshire Collection at Chatsworth House in Derbyshire. She is Professor of Ceramics & Glass at the Royal College of Art, and has a studio in Jingdezhen China. Her work is represented by Adrian Sassoon Gallery.
