Junk? I don’t think so. Gorgeous, eclectic, vintage, upcycled… yeah, that’s a better description of the amazing work that can be found daily on Junkculture, a fabulous blog that inspires me on a regular basis. When I asked him, ie., “the Junkculture guy” {I have no idea what his real name is – but hey, who am I to judge!}, to be one of my jealous weekend guests, I didn’t know how he’d be able to choose from all of the great artists on his site. Well, he narrowed it down and came back with a really, really good one!

I’m jealous of Richard Slee {and I think you’ll be too!}.

Richard Slee is one of Britain’s most important contemporary ceramic artists. His work attempts to challenge every conventional notion of that genre by messing with the cultural and historic possibilities of the ceramic object, using puns, humour and his vast array of craft skills to transform the ordinary into the surprising.
