John Castle Harris (Australian 1893-1967)
John Castle Harris “Jack”, Known professionally as Castle Harris, Was born in North Waratah NSW 1893.
John was a sergeant in the 36th battalion for the Australian Imperial Force on the Western Front. After receiving a gunshot wound to the right thigh, he was discharged and returned to Australia in December 1917.
He also collaborated with Alan James. Alan James was the head thrower at the infamous Remued Pottery Studio and a key member in a majority of the remued ware produced, which was characterised by drip glazed decorative items and homewares that boomed through the 1930s-40s until its closure in 1956.
Continuing to create pottery wares more for gifting purposes rather than practical, He refrained from joining the Society of Arts and Crafts of New South Wales, as he didn’t believe in the contemporary modernist forms that were popular at the time.
John Castle Harris received a fairly large amount of praise for his designs and quality of work, with multiple articles and reviews from critics. He is well known for his creativity and unique style that stood out amounts other artists post-war.
