Made From Fife
In 2012 we created a dresser of 6 plates and beakers made from clays around Fife that have a food connection. This Made From Fife link is to the original blog which described our process of making and discovery.
The drawers hold the things we sieved out of enough clay to make one plate.
The MAC Bus
Our Made From Fife dresser toured during 2013 and 2014 on MAC, Fife Council’s mobile museum as part of an exhibition organised by Fife Contemporary Art & Craft and curated by Jonathan Baxter.
The photo gallery gives a taster of the process we went through and the content of the original blog.
