BIOGRAPHY
Chloe Monks is a contemporary ceramic artist from Bristol. Chloe graduated from the MA Ceramics & Glass programme at the Royal College of Art, which enabled her to delve deeper into investigating material possibilities within ceramics, heavily led by the changing state of a substance. The complexity of form takes centre stage in her works; form and design are planned and thought through before making contact with the material.
Chloe works in a process-intensive manner, making as a means of self-discovery and material potential. Her practice is rooted in research, particularly into glaze and the forms in which it breaks upon. Through persistent innovation of techniques such as the glaze labs, casting, frameworks, and varying kiln atmospheres, Chloe’s work embraces the opportunity of chance and effect.
Chloe is open to discussion regarding the commission of certain works, visiting lecturer opportunities, and potential residencies.
