NEWS: Paul Scott featured in Artsy Article
The Centuries-Old Japanese Tradition of Mending Broken Ceramics with Gold by Casey Lesser
“Some four or five centuries ago in Japan, a lavish technique emerged for repairing broken ceramics. Artisans began using lacquer and gold pigment to put shattered vessels back together. This tradition, known as kintsugi, meaning “golden seams” (or kintsukuroi, “golden repair”), is still going strong.”

NEWS: Fukushima No. 5 on Design Museum of Trondheim Limited Tote
‘Cumbrian Blue(s) Fukushima No:5’ on a limited edition bag for sale at the Design Museum Trondheim shop.
FROM PAUL:
“I am interested in the way images are disseminated by moving between different media and so I was happy when @designmuseumtrondheim proposed printing an image of ‘Cumbrian Blue(s) Fukushima No:5’ (in their collection) on a limited edition bag for sale in the museum shop. This coincides with an exhibition celebrating the museum’s 125th anniversary… 125 objects from their collection have been chosen by 125 people from outside the museum… ‘The 125 choices not only represent the things themselves but 125 new pairs of eyes and 125 new stories about the collection’s place in society. Through these contributions, we gain an insight into what the objects do to people’…. exhibition runs until 28 August 2018…

Home Truths at PEER
A collection of works by Paul Scott on view at PEER Friday 3 March to Saturday 22 April 2017.
PEER, which is located at 97-99 Hoxton Street, London, is a national portfolio organisation of Arts Council England.
FROM PEER:
“Scott not only engages with the dense lexicon of meaning that can be mined from the designs and images, but also considers the production of the objects themselves and the role that they have played in an industrialised capitalist society.”

Cumbrian Blue(s) ‘HOME Truths’PEER exhibition featured in C-File
“British artist Paul Scott’s latest exhibition Home Truths at PEER (March 3 – April 22, 2017) features his detailed etched imagery and collaged ceramics replacing the expected pastoral scenes with those of the brutal honesty humanitarian crisis resulting from Syria’s six year civil war.”
“In creating works from blue and white transfer-ware, which historically has been industrially produced and available to the general public, he aims to elucidate the reality of the Syrian crisis by bringing the narrative into everyday life.”
