For the past two decades, Sean MacPherson has worked in acrylic and mixed media art. Recently, he has transitioned to primarily ceramic works, blurring the lines between fine art and functional design. His work explores ephemeral ideas and memories, focusing on soft objects in transition that are frozen in time through firing. He enjoys discovering juxtapositions of soft feminine objects depicted in more masculine stoneware, celebrating the raw clay body and glazes through the eyes of a painter. He is diagnosed dyslexic and explores the world through a visual lens creating his own illustrative language to convey ideas. 

MacPherson’s decades of painting are translated into glazing through movement and colour usage. He uses line and mark-making to draw the eye through his pieces.
