Showcasing Innovation, Craft and Design.
Tŷ Pawb aims to support makers, artists and crafts people from all disciplines and backgrounds by providing them with a platform for their work in our new Maker Cabinets.
We provide a showcase opportunity for our Maker Space resident artists and makers who work independently and with Tŷ Pawb constituents to create products for sale in our Maker Cabinets.
We are part of the community of traders within Tŷ Pawb which exists as a unique live research model into the coexistance of arts and markets within one broad cultural offer.
Through our socially engaged Designer Maker Project local people work with Tŷ Pawb to produce the Hippodrome Lamp – a beautiful steam bent and CNC cut lampshade made to order. The lamp was designed by Tim Denton.
We also present a small bespoke range of jewellery, textiles and ceramics alongside an interesting selection of magazines and an eclectic mix of greeting cards.
Tŷ Pawb Maker's Showcase
Sara Jane Harper
MAKER CABINETS
Feature the work of painter and ceramist Sara Jane Harper, based in North Wales.
Since completing her Master’s Degree at Reading University in 1987 Sara Jane has continued to produce work influenced by the symbolism of primitive ceramics and sculpture.
Full of colour, optimism and individuality, Sara Jane’s hand painted pots and vessels incorporate a representation of the female form, depictions of abstract symbols and the influence of Taoism which together embody a vocabulary that details Sara Jane’s working signature.
Alongside her art practice Sara Jane has led many art projects and workshops for people of all ages including the production of murals, mosaics, ceramic decorations and hand built objects.

Rachel Holian
Coming soon…
Rachel’s installations of wheel thrown miniature porcelain vessels and stamps explore relationships and meaning. Each collection is grouped in a specific way to give meaning to a particular grouping. This arrangement is personal to Rachel but should have a resonance with the audience that will grow and develop meaning over time. The installations are treasured items intended to bring joy and invoke memories.
Rachel has worked with porcelain since graduating from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2005. After completing her Masters in ceramics in 2018, Rachel has been producing wheel thrown vessels which explore the importance of the decorative arts.
Rachel has recently been admitted to the prestigious Craft Potters Association of GB
