As a self-taught ceramic artist, Miyelle Karmi has been playing with clay since January 2017. Inspired by both natural forms and abstract shapes, she enjoys experimenting with how these two seemingly opposing ideas can be combined. With an emphasis on creating functional homewares, she hopes to enhance the experience of everyday rituals by creating pieces that are playful, beautiful and tactile. Her sculptural designs use exaggerated shapes and proportions with the aim to surprise and delight. Each piece is carefully crafted by hand at the ceramics studio Clay Collective in Hackney, London.
