Derek Wison is a potter and conceptual artist known for his thrown and assembled porcelain vessels and sculptural pieces.
An unapologetic thrower, Derek Wilson consistently challenges his discipline. He combines his minimal aesthetic with accomplished craftsmanship, material knowledge and a propensity to propel modern ceramics through reinterpretation of its form.
He works from his studio in Belfast, regularly lectures and runs workshops. He exhibits extensively at an international level and his work is held in a range of public and private collections. Derek is also a recent recipient of the Rosemary James Memorial Trust Award.
