Rob and Debbie Rivett
2026 – Taking part in Potfest South West – Shaftesbury
Rob and Debbie are a collaboration between thrower and artist making contemporary wheel-thrown porcelain slipware.
Rob enjoys the challenges that throwing with porcelain present. He seeks to emphasise the characteristics of the clay by creating sleek, flowing forms which become a canvas for Debbie to paint on.
Debbie brings her love of walking and appreciation of often overlooked areas of grassland to life in her lively landscape paintings. Using a combination of brushwork and sgraffito, Debbie’s experiments with slip see her using it in a unique and painterly way which capture the swaying grasses of the field margins.
