Behind PER\/SE is Sebastian, a fashion designer by training and a mud addict since 2020.<\/p>\n The collection of both decorative and functional objects is designed to be part of everyday life and to enjoy their texture when touched.

She has trained in different ceramics seminars in the UK and in Barcelona (a Sagittarius who has travelled the world a lot, of course \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n How does Muriel experience ceramics?<\/p>\n “I have always loved movement; the way in which creativity and art emerge from the body, from the tactile. For me, ceramics is to be fully dedicated to the material, it is a letting go through the hands, it is to forget oneself in an infinite exploration of shapes and textures, sensations…. It is a deep meditation.<\/p>\n I am in constant balance between the symmetrical within the organic, between the geometric on top of the deformed, between the delicate in alliance with the crude. I investigate how to express this balance by creating imperfect lines.”<\/p>\n Classes by Muriel:<\/p>\n Visit her Instagram profile: @mud.ceramics<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Wheel throwing teacher<\/p>\n<\/div> Fip Tonkins I grew up with parents who loved hiking, and this gave me a sense of being at home outdoors from an early age that has never left me. I find a lot of inspiration in nature, but the most magical places are the forests.<\/p>\n There are stories and treasures in every nook and cranny, and I am driven by my curiosity about the processes and relationships in the lives of plants. Beyond the shapes and patterns we find there, I am inspired by the feeling of being surrounded by life. The joy we feel when we connect with things that grow, and with the real, solid earth we live on, is something I seek in my connection with clay and the pieces I make.<\/p>\n I take a holistic approach to my pottery practice, using wheel, modelling, sculpture and mould techniques to make the pieces. Each technique feeds and supports the others. Just as in the life of a forest, it is all connected.<\/p>\n Courses by Fip:<\/p>\n Visit Instagram profile: @tonks_pots<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Wheel throwing teacher<\/p>\n<\/div> Andrea Herrera Andrea Herrera Heredero (Barcelona, 1995) combines her three passions, finding a balance between ceramic creation, teaching and photography.<\/p>\n “I am a very curious person and since I was a child I have been attracted to anything to do with art. I studied dance and specialised in pedagogy, studying internationally and working as a dancer and teacher around Catalonia. In my forties I started to grow an interest in the audiovisual arts and ended up studying photography and immediately started working as a content creator for a small company.<\/p>\n As a result of this change in my life, I came across ceramics by chance. From the first day I sat down at the wheel I was overcome with a voracious hunger to learn and this has meant that, juggling a lot, I have spent most of my days practising, researching and being very happy.<\/p>\n Due to my experience as a teacher, I soon had the opportunity to teach everything I was learning, reaffirming how much I enjoy teaching and above all, how much I enjoy sharing my love for ceramics.<\/p>\n Right now I feel very satisfied to be able to combine these three passions in my life: on the one hand I am developing my personal project, Herher Ceramics, in which I show my care for aesthetics through the photographs of the pieces I create for sale; and on the other hand I am part of the El Torn team as a potter’s wheel teacher.”<\/p>\n Courses by Andrea:<\/p>\n Visit her Instagram profile: @andreaherher<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Wheel throwing teacher<\/p>\n<\/div> I fell in love with ceramics while studying Industrial design at the University of Gothenburg. From the beginning it was at the potters wheel where I felt the happiest and it is still my main tool for exploring form as I aim to create beautiful, translucent porcelain objects. I take inspiration from my Scandinavian roots as well as my everyday surroundings in the beautiful city of Barcelona.<\/p>\n My functional ware is made in small batches with much love. I carefully consider balance in form as well as how they feel when used. The slight difference between each member of a family, makes every one unique and I believe it gives extra pleasure when used in our everyday life. All other work is created as I play with a material that I love. They are a result of my artistic contemplations and obsessions.<\/p>\n Courses by Maya:<\/p>\n Visit her Instagram profile: @bymayabcn<\/span><\/a> and her website www.mayakitti.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div> Wheel throwing teacher<\/p>\n<\/div> Elisa Lobasso is a Barcelona-based ceramic artist with an eclectic background in photography, cultural studies, and visual communication.<\/p>\n After studying ceramics, she co-founded Orla, a ceramic studio in Barcelona, where she creates her own pieces.
