The Mireling Spectre

Drawing has always played a pivotal role within fashion designer and couturier Giles Deacon’s practice. Acting as an emotional conduit for displaying a collective vision of worlds, dreams and consciousness, Deacon has interpreted the relationship between drawing, line and form with the techniques of figurine making, a tradition forged in the 18th century in Stoke-on-Trent, home to 1882 Ltd.

Deacon has delved deeply and precisely into the finer details of conveying character and personality when transforming drawings into an object in clay. Imbued with a narrative conveyed through references to the natural world, history, and a twist of paranormal, The Mireling Spectre is inspired by the Lake District in Northern England, a region shaped by glacial valleys and lakes and long associated with artists and romantic poets.
