Poh Chap Yeap (1927-2007) The son of a Chinese family from Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia, he came to England in 1948 to study law at Lincoln’s Inn, London. In the early 1960s, after a long illness, he visited his girlfriend’s parents in Denmark and discovered pottery. There he was introduced by his future father-in-law to a commercial pottery near Aarthus, where he spent six months. Returning to England in 1963 he attended classes at Putney Evening Institute to learn how to pot then went on to study at Hammersmith College of Art, London. At Hammersmith he was approached by Lord Queensbury, asking him to become a research student at the Royal College of Art. This offer was accepted and along with fellow ceramicist, Ian Godfrey, he spent a year there in 1967/8. In 1968-75 Yeap set up the pottery department at St Paul’s School, London; he also taught at Hammersmith College of Art and Brighton Polytechnic. In 1973 Yeap had his first solo exhibitions at the Brian Koetser Gallery in St James’, London and was to have two further solo shows there. In 1977 he had a one-man show at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford (the first ever offered to a living potter). His work was included in many exhibitions during the 1970’s, V&A, London, Tokyo, New York, Heidelberg and Faenza. His last exhibition in England was in 1983 at Liberty’s on Regent Street. After the death of his wife, Yeap stopped potting in 1985. His glazes included uranium yellow, clear blues and pale celadons.
