The Ceramics Monthly feature delves deep into Bishop's unique practice of constructing garments out of individually crafted clay tiles. Drawing parallels to ancient lamellar armor, the article highlights how his wearable ceramics serve as both literal and figurative protection while projecting deep personal identity and political messaging.

The magazine piece also follows Bishop's artistic journey back to his roots as an undergraduate student. It notes that he crafted his very first clay garment, Coat, in 2011 while pursuing a double major in ceramics and art history. Since those early experiments of hand-cutting stencils and lacing tiles together to explore the history of dress, Bishop’s wearable art has evolved to address complex contemporary issues like climate change and habitat loss.

Bishop continues to push boundaries by developing functional ceramic diving helmets for aquatic conservation photography. This international spotlight on the cover of Ceramics Monthly is a testament to his unique vision and extraordinary craftsmanship. Read the full article HERE.
