Grace Birkett Kenrick is a studio potter based in south London. She makes wheel-thrown, mostly functional stoneware from her zero-waste garden studio, where she also teaches throwing and glaze development courses. 

Before returning to her hometown of London, Grace trained with traditional terracotta artisans in Barcelona, later studying ceramics at the Granada School of Art in Andalucía. During her time abroad, she developed a deep interest in the elemental nature of pottery, from atmospheric firings to working with wild clay, while developing her own expressive visual language through glaze making. 

Her practice is driven by an ongoing exploration of ceramic materials, investigating how subtle shifts in clay, glaze and fire can transform the character of a pot. Through this process, she creates quietly expressive functional ware that celebrates the richness and complexity of ceramic surfaces. 

Grace has recently completed exclusive ceramic commissions for St Barts Restaurant and the Chiltern Firehouse in London, and has exhibited work at the Turner Gallery.
