About

Sophie has a lifelong interest in the intersection between thought and act. Her academic roots lie in philosophy and literature and pottery provides her a means of expression.

“Creating pottery is my way of contemplating life. It is a tangible expression of my thoughts and values. It engages my mind and body, forging a connection between past and future while grounding me in the present. In ceramics I find identity and purpose.”

Themes of domesticity and nostalgia emerge as recurring motifs. These are not just utilitarian objects, they serve the dual purpose of practical functionality and the embodiment of agency.

Her pottery is honest and quiet. Each piece is a result of meticulous contemplation, considering elements such as shape, weight, strength, surface, and functionality. The pieces feel humble and kind, reflecting the spirit with which they were made.

“My pots invite users to appreciate the beauty in simplicity and find solace in the ordinary.”
