Collect, Somerset House, 2026

A collaboration with potter, Edmund Davies.

OTZI collaborated with Norwich-based potter Edmund Davies for Collaborative, a cross-disciplinary exhibition curated by County Hall Pottery for Collect 2026. The curatorial framework positioned clay as a living material shaped by culture and daily life, highlighting ceramics as a contemporary field defined by experimentation and community.

The project paired leading ceramic artists with creative practitioners from different disciplines to reimagine ceramics as a shared language. This partnership explored the convergence of touch, tradition, and cross-pollination between the disciplines of pottery and saddlery.
