Thomas Aitken
Price
Thomas Aitken’s BFA is from Nova Scotia College Art and Design (NSCAD) and his MFA is from the University of Wales Institute, Cardiff. In addition to maintaining his studio, he has curated exhibitions, designed and constructed both low-fire and high-fire kilns and, since 1998, taught in the education department of the Gardiner Museum of Ceramic Art. The practicality of his Maritime roots is evident in the simplicity of his forms, while his daring use of color has been influenced by his long sojourn in the Canadian West. Thomas’s work has been exhibited across North America, in the United Kingdom and in Continental Europe.
