Stephen Ladin

Biography to Display: 

BIOGRAPHY

Stephen Ladin is known for slip cast porcelain. Ladin’s signature teapot has a graphic angular form resulting from a construction technique of assembling slip cast modular forms.  

Ladin writes: “... the complexity of the teapot seemed to allow maximum experimentation and variation, and offer[s] opportunities to approach design differently without sacrificing function.” [1]
