Studio Potter James Sims started Clink Street Ceramics in 2014. He graduated from Central St. Martins in 2006 where he studied Furniture and Product Design under Professor Ralph Ball. He also holds postgraduate degrees in Urban Planning from LSBU, and Architectural History from The Bartlett School of Architecture UCL, where he studied under Professors Murray Fraser and Iain Borden. His ceramic practice draws inspiration from his architectural and product design background, in particular his love of Post-Modernism and British subcultures from the 1980s and 90s. He works mostly with stoneware clays and enjoys experimenting with glaze recipes and in-glaze transfers. He works on his own from a small studio in Central London and his work has been exhibited in a number of locations.
