Meet the maker

Giles Clarke is an Artist Maker specialising in hot forged metal work. He uses his tacit knowledge of materials and the five fundamental processes within forging to experiment with design. Specialising in creating contemporary furniture, sculptures and metalwork for both internal and external settings.

Before becoming a qualified blacksmith Giles worked with a variety of clients, in the building and landscape gardening sector. However; he decided his passion for creating, designing and making had to go further. This led him to the artist blacksmithing course at Hereford college of arts and it is here that he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree with honours in Artist Blacksmithing. He has since gone on to set up his own practice in the heart of Sussex alongside teaching the craft at a range of levels from HE to experience days.
