Crafts magazine talk: How can ceramics clean up their act?

With pottery becoming ever-more popular, can we reduce the ecological impact of this energy-hungry craft?

Digging deeper into a topic featured in its latest issue, Crafts magazine is bringing together pioneering ceramicists and designers in a panel discussion to help envisage a greener future for clay.

Crafts' assistant editor Isabella Smith will host an online conversation between Lewis Jones of Granby Workshop, Purva Chawla of MaterialDriven, and Kevin Rouff of Studio ThusThat as part of London Craft Week. From greener kiln firings through to glazes made from food waste and industrial debris – and even human urine – the panel will explore the latest innovations and the challenges that lie ahead.
