"The process of making pottery is just as important, if not more, than the final product. That's why 'Joy in the process' is my motto. Similarly, that is why I not only sell my work but have a passion for teaching the therapeutic creative process of pottery to others. Helping people to embrace the challenges of the process and transforming raw materials into functional works of art that enrich our daily rituals." - Marlaina Irene |
I'd love to make something especially for you.

Why is pottery special? |
Working with clay has been a part of human existence for millennia. Ever since humans discovered clay in the earth, we have been sculpting it in ways remarkably similar to today. The need for pottery is deeply ingrained in human culture. No matter where you are from, what language you speak, or what occupation you have, pottery offers a grounding and centering experience.
Engaging in pottery allows us to connect with our roots, nourishing our souls and reminding us to be present in the beautiful lives we have been given. It transcends boundaries, offering people from all walks of life the chance to come together, enjoy, and struggle with the same creative process. Pottery fosters community, trust, and mutual learning. We need community, and we need pottery. |
