About the Item
Cylindrical in form, reduced of ornament, this Jason Wason vase revels in the materiality of clay. Featuring a series of tactile ribbed horizontal bands across the collar, the vessel’s patinated, textured surface has an elemental feel. The unglazed treatment of clay, as well as its reduction of form is likely inspired by Jason Wason’s interest in Suzu ware, after his residency in Seto, Japan.
Jason Wason (b. 1946) is a British ceramicist whose practice began at a crafts co-operative in Scotland, working alongside a weaver, saddler and jeweller. He later trained under Bernard Leach — an influential figure in 20th-century British ceramics — before he established his own studio in West Penwith.
To truly grasp the essence of Wason’s work, one must envision his studio; a veiled asylum on a Cornish hillside, suspended “between sea and sky”, where wind, rain and the raw ocean shape both the man and his clay.
Largely self-taught and guided by an innate sense of roving independence, the ceramist’s vessels carry the imprint of distant cultures and prehistoric landscapes, echoing a perpetual dialogue between artistic customs and elemental forces. His works have been acquired by the V&A and Tate St Ives for both permanent and temporary collections.
