Dan Jamieson

Dan Jamieson is an artist/illustrator and now accepts he is a ceramicist, living and working in Nottingham. 

He makes handmade 'hate plates' involving blunt, sometimes rude, and charmingly crude statements that are often humorous or hard hitting and equally bold and equally crass.

They centre around the rigours and awkwardness of socialising, family and friend’s irritating habits, drinking, snacking, misplaced nostalgia and interior designers aiming to provoke a reaction in the viewer as a conversation piece.

The hate plates started out as an experiment during a ceramics class at Turning Earth. When those pieces quickly sold out, he decided to make more and has continued since. 

His works are now collected worldwide and have formed a devoted fanbase amongst clients and celebrities alike. His work has been featured in The Sunday Times Style, Grazia, and Vogue Canada together with many influential interior designers’ social media accounts. 

He has progressed into bigger and bolder screenprints and neon artworks exclusive to Air Contemporary Gallery, while still staying faithful to pushing and pursuing new ideas with the original hate plates.

Don't say it to their face, say it with a hate plate instead.
