PIETRO SANNA

Ceramicist, Artist | York, England | Born in Sardinia, Italy

 

Pietro’s practice focuses on hand-built clay vessels, which act as storytelling carriers. His work explores narrative expression through the interplay of form, texture, and materiality, showcasing how clay can be both a medium and a metaphor.

 

By engaging in experimentation, Pietro embraces the unpredictability of working with clay, letting the material’s inherent properties guide the creative process.

 

 

 

 

 

Key aspects of Pietro’s work include:
  • Narrative-driven design: Each vessel tells a story or conveys emotions, cultural contexts, or abstract ideas.
  • Reflective 24 Karot Gold lustre and beautiful and richly glazed colours
  • Experimentation with clay: He leverages the tactile and transformative possibilities of clay, highlighting its role in shaping meaning.
  • Unique, hand-built forms: Rejecting mass production, Pietro prioritizes individuality and craftsmanship in his vessels.

 

Such practices bridge traditional craft and contemporary art, reflecting a deep engagement with both material and meaning.
