SCAF Emerging Artist Award 2025

We are delighted that Lincolnshire based ceramicist Laura Lee who is one of the SDC's newest members has recently been selected as a finalist for the SCAF Emerging Artist Award 2025

The SCAF Emerging Artist Award has been created to acknowledge up and coming artists of all ages who are living in the Yorkshire region. The intent of the award is to bring recognition and awareness to outstanding visual artists in the region who are at the early stages of their career or who have not yet established a reputation as an artist amongst art curators, buyers and critics.

Laura Lee works from her studio in the beautiful Hall Farm Gardens, Lincolnshire.

Wheel thrown ceramic vessels are informed from shapes and textures found in local forests and woodlands. She practices the process of Raku and captures through various glazing techniques, movement and energy to her ceramic artworks.

Her collections are intrinsically linked to environmental issues caused by damage to the natural world through climate change.
