Ursula Ströh-Rubens
Ursula was born in Germany and lives and works in Suffolk. She creates unique, hand built sculptural vessels, which are first biscuit fired and then Raku fired or smoked.
Ursula has travelled extensively in Greece where the evidence of cultural origins and the land, as well as nature and architecture have greatly shaped her visual language. She relates this experience to the forms and structures that develop through the process of building the pot. Thus birds, trees, skies and land emerge out of slips, pigments and fire. Ursula studied at Goldsmiths School of Art in London and gained a Post Graduate Diploma in Ceramics and Etching. She went on to lecture at Goldsmiths. Ursula has exhibited widely across the UK, including Kettle's Yard in Cambridge. Her work is held in many collections including the Wilfred Trust, Auckland, New Zealand, the Gateshead Museum in Shipley, and Stadt Dortmund in Germany.
