Name: David Roberts

David Roberts, a distinguished English Potter, has established himself as a leading international practioner in Raku ceramics. He is acknowledged in the community of ceramicists as being responsible for introducing and promoting modern, large scale, Raku in Britain. In his exploration of a technique which has its origin in the making of small vessels for the Tea Ceremony in late sixteenth-century Japan, David Roberts has transformed it into a vibrant and contemporary art form. His work can be found in public and private collections in Europe and America
