Kate Malone

Kate Malone (born in 1959 in London) is a British studio potter and judge, along with Keith Brymer Jones, on BBC2’s The Great Pottery Throw Down presented by Sara Cox.[1][2][3] Malone is known for her large sculptural vessels and rich, bright glazes.

Malone studied at Bristol Polytechnic (1979–82)[4] and, after leaving the Royal College of Art in 1986, began working in a studio in the South Bank Craft Centre at Charing Cross.[5] Malone's work is held in the British Council collection.[6]

Her work is on display in a number of public locations, a giant ceramic fish in the water at Hackney Marshes and a large pot at Manchester Art Gallery.[7] Malone's work is also held in numerous public collections, including Arts Council, Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery, Crafts Council, The Ashmolean Museum, Musée national de céramique de Sèvres, Victoria & Albert Museum and Los Angeles County Museum of Art.[4]

Malone worked with EPR Architects on a project at 24 Saville Row which gained a first place WAN Facade Award in 2015 and is a finalist in the 2016 Surface Design Awards.[8] The project involved making 10,000 hand-glazed ceramic tiles.[9]

Malone has said, “pottery is almost as good as sex – it’s so physical and so… fantastic”.[10][11]
