Collect - the leading art fair for contemporary craft and design - recently returned to Somerset House for its 22nd edition.

Spanning ceramics, glass, lacquer, furniture, jewellery, metalwork, wood, textiles and paper - the fair continues to push the boundaries of traditional craft techniques as we know them. It also paints a picture of the evolving material landscape, presenting alternative craft materials such as denim, moss and shopping bags, as well as spotlighting those embracing digital technology in their practice. It's a hive of creativity, showcasing emerging names alongside master craftspeople.
