Perry, Grayson | Totally Unique Thing, 2025 — available on Composition Gallery

Glazed ceramic with an AI-generated image Stamped by the artist's estate, Text verso. Manufactured by The Wallace Collection.

Grayson Perry’s Totally Unique Thing (2025) is a striking mixed-media work combining a glossy black glazed ceramic frame with a surreal AI-generated image. The ornate, hand-crafted frame is adorned with esoteric symbols and inscribed with the phrase "I KNOW WHO I AM", echoing Perry’s ongoing exploration of identity, self-expression, and societal roles. Inside the frame, a fantastical, digitally rendered portrait of a doll-like figure in regal yellow attire sits in an uncanny, dreamlike world filled with cats, clocks, and symbolic ornaments. Blending traditional craft with futuristic digital aesthetics, Perry presents a humorous and layered commentary on technology, authorship, and the construction of self in the 21st century.

Grayson Perry (UK, 1960) is a celebrated contemporary artist and Turner Prize winner known for his provocative ceramics, tapestries, and multimedia works. Often exploring themes of identity, gender, and societal norms, Perry uses humor and craftsmanship to challenge perceptions. His alter ego, Claire, features prominently in his artistic narrative.

Art is not some fun add-on to life.
- Grayson Perry

Renowned for his unorthodox expression, Grayson Perry is an artist whose most notable works include printed tapestries and ceramic vases that explore both historical and contemporary themes, as well as featuring autobiographical references to his own life, and that of his transvestite alter-ego, Claire. Among Perry’s most acclaimed works is Aspects of Myself, a ceramic vessel featuring several different figures, some altogether innocent, and others - such as a bound and gagged woman - more sinister; Perry has confirmed that these figures depict various different aspects of his own personality. In creating his ceramic works, Perry refers to the ceramic traditions of folk art and Greek pottery while using the traditional coiling method to create the final shape, he then fires in a kiln several times in order to transfer the image and finish with a lustre glaze.
