Sub-collections

The Tithe Barn collection is based on the red clay in the soil used to make coarse-ceramic products (such as roof tiles and bricks) and used by a number of potteries to produce functional ware. The oldest ceramic work from the collection dates back to the Romans (ca. 100 AD), while the latest ceramic work comes from contemporary artists from the 21st century, from the Netherlands and Europe.
