Award films 2025 – Jane Perryman

Media category
Film

Award is the British Ceramics Biennial’s headline exhibition. It invites ten selected artists to tread new ground, use the momentum of the exhibition to focus or make a step change in their practice or to present work in ways it hasn’t previously been experienced.

 

About the Award films

Each film introduces the Award artists and shares how, where and why they make their work. Created by acclaimed filmmakers Lucy and Cameron of Elastic Pie Films, they reveal clay to be a rich material for storytelling, experimentation, playfulness, risk-taking and activism.

Jane Perryman is part of the Award exhibition at Spode Works, open daily 10am-4pm from 6 September – 19 October 2025.

 

About the artist

Jane Perryman views her work as a process of creative documentation, exploring themes of time, place and chance through sequential forms.

For Award 2025, Jane draws on the experience of rewilding an acre of agricultural land, fostering native plant life to thrive once again. She has built a library of colour possibilities using distilled plant-based pigments and utilises these to colour ceramic pieces.
