Kizzy Rose Budd (1999) is a maker and workshop facilitator from London, based in Plymouth, UK. After her apprenticeship in pottery with zero-waste studio, Pottersthumb, she began to focus on the social and educational value of making. Kizzy has led drop-in pottery sessions with Pottersthumb, taught throwing at Ceramic Classes London and more recently collaborated with collective and research agency Colèchi in delivering crochet and natural dye workshops. Kizzy is currently completing an MA in Craft at Arts University Plymouth.

Kizzy works across the craft disciplines of pottery and textiles, guided by a deep love of making. Her work is inspired by dance and theatricality, and by the ways bodies can transform through costume and performance. This performative sensibility infuses her objects with movement and dynamism, as though each continues to spin even after it is removed from the pottery wheel.

Kizzy tries to approach making in an earth-sensitive and non-extractive way; working with locally sourced clay, ash glazes and burnishing as well as only using repurposed fabrics and natural dyes made from food waste to avoid relying on raw, new, or synthetic materials.
