About the artist

’s practice explores the subtle ambiguities of the everyday, employing clay as a means to pause and reconsider our surroundings. His sculptural works balance the material presence of ceramics with the spaces they enclose, creating forms that invite viewers to enter and engage. Through open and extended structures, Hollowood reflects on relationships between separate elements, allowing the space itself to act as a metaphor for human connection. Each work emerges through experimentation and risk, shaped by the unpredictable interplay of energy and matter within the kiln. The resulting sculptures feel alive and unpolished, charged with tension, vulnerability, and a quiet instability that mirrors the human experience they evoke. Hollowood was born in the United Kingdom in 1962. He holds a degree in Graphic Design from Central Saint Martins, and completed his MA in Ceramics and Glass at the Royal College of Art in 2025. Hollowood lives and works in London.
