Surveying a range of work produced over a long and distinguished career, this book, the first on Johnston, has at its heart an extensive interview with the potter. Setting out to explore the new forms and progressions which mark her oeuvre, the insightful text combines discussion of the complex technical, physical and aesthetic processes of artistic creation with a unique opportunity to understand the personality behind the outstanding work reproduced here. The text is interwoven with images, most of which are colour reproductions of individual pots but also include shots of the potter in the studio, as well as details of her studio environment.
