Mark Hewitt is an internationally recognized studio potter based in Pittsboro, North Carolina, known for his large-scale functional and sculptural wood-fired ceramics. Born in Stoke-on-Trent, England, he draws heavily from English and Asian ceramic traditions, particularly those of Bernard Leach and Shoji Hamada, as well as the folk pottery traditions of the American South and North Carolina. Hewitt utilizes local North Carolina clays and creates his own distinctive ash glazes, firing his pieces in a large wood-burning kiln. His work is celebrated for its robust forms, rich surfaces, and the synthesis of historical influences with a contemporary sensibility.
