Artist
Anne Smith
Anne Smith creates ceramics that serve as canvases for abstract designs inspired by nature, landscapes, and her travels. Working primarily with stoneware clays of contrasting textures and colours, she combines these with rich green and blue glazes, creating dramatic contrasts with unglazed surfaces. Her pieces often evoke botanical themes, with layered underglazes and glazes reflecting the striking patterns of elements such as Madagascan tree bark or iconic landscapes. In addition to her glazed works, Anne produces smoke-fired and raku pieces, embracing the unpredictability of these processes to achieve unique and dynamic results. Whether through intricate layering or the spontaneity of smoke and fire, her ceramics celebrate the interplay of memory, nature, and craftsmanship.

Exhibition Record
Delamore Arts 2025
Artizan Collective is delighted to continue our partnership with Delamore Arts for a second year in 2025. Since 2014, our South Devon-based social enterprise has championed the region’s creative industries, managing cultural venues and providing artist support services with a strong community ethos from our home on the English Riviera. As a key player in Torbay’s cultural regeneration, we represent hundreds of practicing artists annually, showcasing the depth of talent in the South West and beyond. Our first collaboration with Delamore Arts in 2024, Contemporary British Printmakers, brought together an inspiring collection of works that celebrated emerging and established printmakers from Devon and across the UK. Building on that success, this year we are excited to curate two exhibitions, alongside a dynamic workshop programme and an engaging calendar of Maker Takeovers—intimate artist and maker fairs that bring creativity to life for visitors. “Delamore Arts is a highlight of the South West arts calendar, and it’s an honour to expand our contribution this year. We’re thrilled to showcase the vibrancy and diversity of the creative community while sharing the wider work we do to nurture artistic practice in the region. From our Torquay venues set amidst the stunning backdrop of a UNESCO Global Geopark, to our networks and patronage programmes, we’re committed to supporting creatives of all backgrounds as they make their mark locally and nationally.”
