Congratulations to Nayeem, who uses our services in Southport. His ceramic artwork has been selected to be part of The Sefton Open annual exhibition at The Atkinson!
Nayeem uses our services in Southport. He is a very talented artist and a ceramist. He has never had formal training in art and craft but showed exceptional ability from a very young age.
As a child, Nayeem could not hold a pencil. He did not know how to put pressure to write or draw something. His mother tried several ways to develop his skills by giving him brushes and paint, felt pens and whiteboard, and even coloured water on a plastic sheet to make shapes with his finger. Once he saw that he could make shapes, he started showing interest.
At present, Nayeem attends Southport Clay Works once a week, where he makes models with ceramics and has his techniques for making them.
Nayeem is very passionate about horses, which feature as the subject matter for a lot of his paintings.
You can visit the exhibition at The Atkinson until Saturday 31 May 2025.
