I started ceramics as a hobby when I was trying to cope with depression and anxiety. To be honest, I think clay saved my life. I learnt what it meant to slow down, relax, and pick myself back up again every time I got knocked down.

Clay has taught me to look inward, and accept myself just the way I am. With clay, I don’t need to put on a brave face or look like I have it all together - I can just be.

I find so much joy in sharing my love for clay with others; be it with homeware that I’ve made or teaching others to get that creative spark back.

Thank you for taking the time to read about what clay means to me, and I hope to see you soon!
