About the Item
Anna Barlow (UK, 1982), "And We'll Make Memories", 2024 glazed porcelain and earthenware, approx. 31cm W x 31cm D x 45cm H
Handmade ceramic scultpure - Unique piece
Anna Barlow is a London based British ceramic artist, whose work playfully explores the rich territory between visual indulgence and material mastery. Specialising in luscious, hyper-realistic ceramic sculptures of ice creams, cakes, and confections, Barlow creates pieces that are both technically astonishing and emotionally evocative. Her work is a celebration of abundance, nostalgia, and the fleeting pleasure of the edible, transformed into something permanent and precious.
Originally from Bristol, Barlow obtained a BA (Hons) in Ceramics at the Bath Spa College University and has since then refined her ceramic expertise through years of experimental practice. Her sculptural process is notably complex: she combines different clays and firing temperatures—earthenware, porcelain, stoneware—to replicate a variety of textures and consistencies, from melting ice cream to whipped frosting. Each piece is meticulously glazed to achieve surfaces so realistic they seem almost wet, sticky, or melting—challenging our perception and triggering a visceral reaction.
Drawing on themes of ritual, celebration, and desire, Barlow’s decadent compositions appear on the edge of collapse, frozen in the moment before they melt or are consumed. Her work occupies a unique intersection of technical virtuosity, humorous excess, and quiet commentary on consumerism and ephemerality. Every piece is a testament not only to her remarkable craftsmanship but also to her ability to transform something transient and tempting into enduring, seductive sculpture.

White 3D Printed Ceramic Sculptural Vase Italy Contemporary, 21st Century
By Andrea Salvatori
Located in London, GB
"Composizione 40100 #02" (In crescendo), 2019, glazed earthenware, measures: H 47 x 30 x 30cm
Andrea Salvatori (Italy, 1975) is an internationally renowned visual artist working with the ceramic medium to realize often ironic and witty sculptures, sometimes involving a diverse selection of found objects, such as Murano glass vases, Meissen Porcelain miniatures or Ginori period ceramics sourced in flea markets around Europe. Salvatori’s works often begin with these items and proceed by the addition of elements masterfully created by the artist, generating an unexpected semantic shift. The result is unique, encompassing pop culture and kitsch aesthetics: a witty and effective way to turn reality upside-down and at the same time a powerful combination of exquisite craftsmanship and genuine irony.
Andrea Salvatori was born on 3 of March 1975 in Faenza (Ra), Italy; he has graduated at the Istituto d’arte for Ceramic in Faenza in 1995, and he then graduated with a Degree in Sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti of Bologna in 2000. During his studies, Andrea learned the secrets of ceramics from the creative duo Bertozzi & Casoni having worked as an apprentice in their studio for many years at the same way as during Renaissance artists learned their practice with their Masters. Since 1997 he had several individual and collective exhibitions. In 2009 he won the first prize at the 56th edition of the prestigious Premio Faenza, the International Contest of Contemporary Art Ceramics, for which he classified second in the prior edition. In 2011 he classified second at the Sidney Myer Fund Australian Ceramic...
