Sampada Gurung

Sampada Gurung is a British-Nepalese illustrator and potter based in London. She is the founder of The Slightly Curious Studio where she runs weekly pottery classes and life drawing lessons. In 2020, she was also a contestant for the third series of The Great Pottery Throw Down which was aired on Channel 4. Through her masterclasses, she aims to make art accessible and encourages people to freely explore their creative side. Her art incorporates the delicate qualities of traditional pottery with a contemporary twist, with many of her designs being inspired by the surreal human form and symbolism. We met up with Sampada at her studios in Alperton to chat about her ceramics business and some of the influences behind her work. Full Article: https://oon-london.com/Sampada-Gurung
