Hugh has worked as an editor, but having caught the pottery bug now finds it hard to do anything else. He makes mainly hand-built functional ceramics with the odd bit of wood thrown in and has a penchant for teapots and their accoutrements.

Maker Snapshot #3
Dorian Everard
Dorian is a neurodivergent, transgender artist creating from Te Awa Kairangi ki Tai.
He primarily works out of a community art studio known as Kererū House, which he shares with other local artists and creatives in Naenae, known as the 'Kererū Artist's Collective'. Because of this he considers himself both self and community taught. Dorian's art appeals to his nature of wanting to elevate causes that matter to him and his community.
