Katie Rose Johnston: MANIFESTO.

Katie Rose Johnston, an artist based in South Glasgow, draws inspiration from her childhood in Shetland to create ceramics that blend natural forms with function. Her studio, MANIFESTO, emphasizes small-batch ceramics influenced by nature, archaeology, and Scotland's landscapes. Johnston's work merges sculptural, decorative, and functional elements, reflecting her fascination with collecting natural objects and exploring the boundary between form and function. Through her art, she aims to connect the deep past with contemporary experiences, considering our ancestry, what makes a home, and how conversation pieces can foster connections.
