Artist Name

lara de sio

Born: 1968

Hometown: Venice

Based in: Venice

I was born in 1968 in Bolzano, Northern Italy. I studied architecture in Venice and worked first as architect in Italy and in the Netherlands then as glassdesigner in Murano, Venice. Always fascinated with clay I started to work with it in the '80s and attended workshops and masterclasses in Venice, Tuscany and Umbria. Aim of my work is the expression of the sculptural character of the vessel, whose shape and surface grow together during the slow process of coilbuilding. Vessel that is conceived as a timeless object with an universal appeal.
