Pygmy Vase

Ethnic vase with white decorations

    A small black clay vase with ethnic designs painted in white terra sigillata. It's 13 cm tall and unglazed, so it can't hold water. It's perfect for holding dried flowers, or even on its own, alongside some African sculptures.

    Materials: black chamotte clay, white sealed earth

Ceramics

Born and raised in Lugano, Switzerland, I moved to Carimate and later to Milan as a young woman. I discovered ceramics in the early 1990s, attending qualified courses and specialized workshops that allowed me to delve deeper into the techniques and develop my artistic sensibility. I ran my own workshop, first in Brianza and later in Milan, where I held courses for children and adults, also offering assistance to other ceramists and enthusiasts. Always fascinated by ethnic cultures, particularly African, and by the world of design, I have developed a style that reflects these influences. In my ceramics, I love combining primitive decoration and firing techniques with modern, minimalist lines. My research has focused primarily on experimenting with ancient firing techniques and alternative decoration methods. In the early 2000s, I moved to San Gimignano, Tuscany, where I opened a new workshop and shop, later collaborating with other artists and creating the Pentarte cultural association. In 2006, I felt a strong pull from my roots and decided to close my business in Tuscany to return to live in my hometown, Lugano.
