Display artist/maker:

Rafael Perez

Born: 1957, Spain, La Rioja, Haro

Ceramicist. Pérez initially studied economics before studying ceramics at the Escola Massana in Barcelona (1978-81). Perez creates complex structures, often using a contrast of clays to emphasise the form. In his own words, Perez explains that his work “is about surprising myself and the audience, using white porcelain and black earthenware clay.” In 2007, Pérez was elected a member of the International Academy of Ceramics.
