Value in the details

Slow life of Ceramics

Her pieces are made one by one on the potter's wheel, as it is her preferred technique. However, she also hand sculpts and uses molds for some details.

The wheel requires several steps, such as creating the pieces, trimming or polishing the bases, and adding decoration, textures, or handles. Then, they are fired, glazed, and fired again at a higher temperature, around 1230°C.

Finally, when they come out of the kiln for the second time, they are ready for use, except for the pieces to which she adds wooden elements, which still need to go through the process of attaching these.

It is quite a long and somewhat slow process, but she enjoys it immensely.
