Fleur Winter is an artist who produces sculptural figurative artworks in stoneware ceramics.

"My work is about creating elegant and innovative form through the construction of hand-coiled or press-moulded vessel forms. My inspiration is taken from the human body, in particular its abstract qualities and the forms that occur naturally within it."

"I regard my work to be both statuesque and monumental in both its structure and size, continuing to make larger pieces. I want my work to be displayed in large open spaces, and to be view as if a large 3D painting."

"All my work is twice fired to stoneware temperatures, are glazed and are weather proof."

Fleur has worked at the Guernsey Pottery and alongside an etablished family run pottery in Guernsey, whilst producing work for her first major exhibition in 2005.

Presently she lives and works in East London and shares a studio with several other ceramicists, working as a full-time, self-employed ceramic artist.
