I love the shapes of the historic bottle ovens and kilns in Stoke-on-Trent, the major hub of the UK pottery industry during the 19th and 20th centuries. These ovens were phased out when the Clean Air Act was brought in, and most were demolished, but over 40 still remain around the city, and I find them a fascinating subject for my work as each is a slightly different shape, and in different states of repair and surroundings. These are the three flint kilns from the former W. Baker & Co pottery factory in Fenton, of the six towns of Stoke-on-Trent. They now are owned and cared for by James Kent Ltd who now own the site. I love the shapes of the roofs around them, a mixture of old and new industrial and residential buildings in the middle of the community.

Full description
A three-stage reduction linocut of bottle kilns in a roofscape in Fenton, Stoke-on-Trent. It is on off-white Ho-Sho paper, and using Caligo Safewash relief ink. The image is 10cm x 15.5cm, (roughly A6) and the paper is 20 x 14cm. Each print is hand-inked and hand-printed, so each is slightly different giving them each a unique quality. As this is a reduction print, the lino plate is gradually cut away during the process so that no more prints can be made.
Designed by Mary Parker in Stoke-on-Trent
