Tommaso Corvi-Mora (b. Piacenza, Italy, 1969) is an Italian artists, living and working in London.
Positioning his work firmly within the lineage of studio pottery, Corvi-Mora embraces traditional techniques. Intuition and a degree of spontaneity play an important role in his practice, but his works are not improvised; each piece is considered and begins life as a drawing. For Corvi-Mora ceramics shouldn’t just be considered as being decorative. The notion of the vessel is central to Tommaso’s work, which is informed by the long history of ceramic production, from antiquity to the modern age.
