Will Martin’s ceramic journey began at age 8, taking weekend classes near his local library. After High School he went on to study Art History, Anthropology and English at the University of Cape Town. Having exhibited nationally and internationally at 21, he moved to the UK for a Masters in Contemporary Art History at Christies’ Education. Over the past decade in London he has been teaching, exhibiting and cooking, often platforming other artists and institutions in order to build a sense of community. Martin enjoys making immersive environments - the artworks, the food and the crockery - resulting in a cohesive space and memorable encounters.

As a freelance pottery teacher, Martin has worked at Turning Earth, The Kiln Rooms, Muni and Studio Pottery London. He also teaches an annual Master Class at Studio Pansa in Amsterdam, and a contextual studies lecture at the Victoria and Albert Museum for the Kings Foundation Diploma Year
