Clay : A Human History
An engrossing history of the deep connection between humans and clay' Katherine May, author of Enchantment
'Fascinating and powerful' Brian Eno
Clay is baked into our culture: we have been taking handfuls of earth and forming them into their own image since our history began.
In Clay: A Human History, Jennifer Lucy Allan navigates the story of humankind and our relationship to making and creativity through our relationship with this enigmatic, ancient material.
Born out of a desire to know and understand the spiritual and practical applications of clay in both its micro and macro histories, Clay: A Human History is a hybrid of archaeology, history and lived experience as an amateur potter.
