In his first major solo exhibition, ceramicist Rich Miller (judge on Channel 4's The Great Pottery Throwdown) delves into his own heritage and an exploration of British colonial history, examining the complexities of migration and the lasting cultural influences woven into the fabric of British society. Through the medium of clay, this exhibition unearths the narratives of trade, labour and identity that have shaped contemporary Britain. His work - inspired by objects and stories from the past - aims to prompt challenging conversations about our shared history, as well as presenting beautifully crafted individually-made works.
