Catherine speaks to Faye Twinn about her late autistic discovery.
Faye discovered she was autistic in her late 30’s and this discovery changed her entire outlook on life itself.
She spent her teens in Devon and it was there within her secondary school that she was identified as ‘dyslexic’. Struggling to fit in, she quickly self identified as arty and found that within the creative subjects she could strive.
She went on to study Fine Art at Falmouth University. Later retaking her English and Maths GCSE’s, gaining a PGCE in arts education and completing a Masters in costume at Central Saint Martins, London. She feels that she scrabbled through her late teens and 20’s and worked in various settings to get by.
Eventually settling into lecturing art and fashion. She spent 15 years as a Lecturer before resigning during the pandemic.
These days Faye can be found working as a studio potter in Essex. She is married, has a 8 year old son and 2 step children in their 20’s.
The work that she produces now, came from needing to step back and an understanding that some of us need to live slower for our well-being.
She creates eco conscious functional pottery and strives to provide simple pieces that can be used to create little moments of loveliness. Her pottery is sold across a number of independent lifestyle stores through out the UK and is also available from her website
