The Hope Collection

In collaboration with I Have This Thing With Ceramics.

Eleven makers, one brief: Hope.

Private View: Tuesday 8th September, 5–8pm
Exhibition: 9th–13th September 2026

The Brief: Hope

To mark our second anniversary in Hampstead, we invited a selection of Fodder makers to respond to a single brief: Hope. What they made of it was entirely their own.

The result is a very limited collection, each piece made specifically for this exhibition. Some responded to the world as it is now. Others looked to their children, to the first signs of spring, to the simple act of raising something up and giving it visibility.

Shop the collection now.

20% of every sale from the collection throughout September will be donated to Hope Unlimited Charitable Trust

"In a world of increasing uncertainty, I find myself needing to hope in a way I haven't before. Finding hope through craft, through the hand of the maker, and supporting a charity that unites communities feels more important than ever. I hope our small contribution will offer hope to others."

LUCI NOEL
FOUNDER, FODDER

    The Studio Sessions with Caroline Dickinson

    Caroline Dickinson spent a decade designing prints for high street brands, watching collections roll over before anyone had time to love them. Eventually she decided to do something different. She now screen prints onto preloved menswear shirts in her South London studio, one by one, each one of a kind. We sat down with her to talk about slow making, imperfection, and the shirt that became the best networking hack ever.
