About the Artist:
Maya Carves was born from love for mountains, rocky landscapes and the raw beauty of nature.
All stoneware pieces are made entirely by hand. When looking close you will be able to observe and enjoy charming irregularities in each piece.
All of the ceramic functional and decorative wares are hand built, using different techniques like pinching, coil building slab building and kurinuki. Some of the pieces are made using the potter’s wheel and then textured and faceted by hand.
I create my ceramic pieces with an artistic vision, rooted in tradition and inspired by nature. Maya Carves promotes handcrafted ceramics that blend function with art, celebrating the beauty of everyday objects through small-batch, sustainably made designs. Focused on one-of-a-kind items with a transparent production process and sustainable practices to oppose mass-produced ceramics, creating exclusivity and a sense of connection with the maker.
