The Rayner Brothers at Seed Gallery

I visited Seed Gallery in Crowhurst Street, Newmarket for the first time last week. The show featured the ceramic work of Paul & Mark Rayner. The email invite had mentioned Paul’s practice being “centred on ceramic pieces referencing Toby jugs, Staffordshire figurines”. This had me intrigued. One of Paul’s pieces was a reinterpretation of the famous Staffordshire Figure of The Death of Munro (the most collectable Staffordshire Figure). Paul’s work is entitled ‘The Mauling Roy Horn’. Very clever.
