Introducing a taste of the collection of handmade porcelain lamps by Helen Harrison — each one a unique meeting of light, colour, texture and gesture.

Painterly surfaces, playful fragments and softly glowing details make these lamps feel as much like sculptural artworks as functional lighting.

Handcrafted in porcelain, every piece carries its own rhythm and character.

A celebration of wood 🤎

Beautifully handcrafted pieces bringing together natural grain, texture and simple, timeless forms. From the turned lamp base and sculptural vessels to the bold, cyanotype, fern-print shade, we love how these pieces sit together.

Beautiful forms, expressive surfaces and plenty of character 🤍

This collection of contemporary ceramics brings together wonderfully individual pieces, from painterly washes of blue and natural earthy tones to striking hand-drawn marks and tactile finishes.

Each piece has its own personality just like the artists who created them, but we think they look rather lovely gathered together.

Discover them and more in the gallery at Mooch Art & Makers in Dartington, Totnes.

Diannah Lowry – Contemporary Landscape Painting - Devon Gold II

A striking and treasured, contemporary landscape by Diannah Lowry, capturing the dramatic beauty and changing moods of the South Devon countryside.

This mixed media painting contrasts a vivid, sunlit golden field with a brooding, atmospheric sky, creating an immediate sense of depth, movement and anticipation. A row of dark, silhouetted trees stretches across the horizon, their organic forms standing in beautiful tension against the expansive yellow landscape and turbulent grey clouds.

Diannah Lowry is a contemporary artist originally from Sydney, Australia, now based in South Devon. Her landscape paintings are inspired by the drama and changing moods of the Devon landscape, with colour playing a particularly important role in her work. 

This large, framed painting is ready to hang, has recently been reduced by the artist to £745 and has been getting a lot of interest in it's new location at the foot of our stairs in the gallery.

This inviting corner of Mooch Art & Makers brings together a striking collection of contemporary South West art and craft, creating a vibrant conversation between landscape, nature and handmade design.

Mooch Art & Makers, Dartington, Devon

On the left wall is Kerry Tremlett's expressive woodland painting, where twisting trees glow with rich copper and ochre tones against deep turquoise shadows. Full of energy and movement, it draws the viewer into an enchanted forest bathed in warm light.

Balancing it on the right is a dramatic atmospheric landscape by Belinda Reynell, with sweeping skies, textured brushwork and a muted palette of soft blues, creams and earthy browns. The painting captures the ever-changing mood of the South West landscape, evoking both power and tranquillity.

Beneath the larger works are smaller original paintings by Henrietta Paine and Miranda Garner, offering colourful coastal scenes and local landscapes that provide a charming contrast to the scale of the feature pieces. Together they showcase the diversity of artistic styles represented within our gallery.

The display is completed with a carefully curated selection of ceramics, hand-turned wood, glass, hand printed lampshades, turned wooden lamps, ceramics and glass demonstrating Mooch Art & Makers' commitment to celebrating exceptional craftsmanship alongside original fine art.
