The Pottery of Elizabeth Wiese

ew-ceramics-elizabeth-wiese-intro-03

Being one of the oldest materials produced by human beings, ceramics arise from a natural element – clay – that is transformed into a flexible paste with the incorporation of mineral products and water, allowing infinite creative possibilities in modeling the desired shapes by the ceramist. It is in this process of creative development that this artist applies various techniques – the wheel, the plate, the pinch pot, glazing and others – dedicating herself to building shapes, sculptures, colors, effects and nuances, which attract looks and adorn life.

Elizabeth Wiese’s creative pottery presented, shows exclusive pieces handcrafted by the ceramist with different types of ceramic mass, glazed and taken to a special high temperature oven (1240°C) obtaining a beautiful vitrified effect.

The works she produces are highly resistant, and in addition to their decorative qualities, they can have specific purposes, such as lighting objects, or be put on the table and used to serve food. As the produced ceramics are made with non-toxic pigment glazes, they can be heated in a conventional oven, microwave and resist dish washing machine.

Ceramic pieces can be made by order, with variations in formats, dimensions and colors, allowing, whenever desirable, the customer’s co-participation in the creation of the final product.
