(Eh-thee-re-ul Al-clay-me)

When I first began working with clay, it quickly became clear it was more than just learning a craft. Pottery asked for all of me—focus, patience, and presence. I realized that to shape the clay, my mind, body, and spirit needed to work together. 


The name Ethereal Alclayme reflects that process. “Ethereal” describes the state of being deeply present in creation, yet guided by something beyond me. “Alclayme” is a play on the word “alchemy,” symbolizing the transformation that happens when raw clay becomes something lasting and meaningful.

Through ceramics, I’ve learned that the process itself is an alchemy: not only shaping clay, but also reshaping myself. Just as alchemy turns the ordinary into the extraordinary, pottery, for me, is a medium of self-discovery through creation.

Ethereal Alclayme is an invitation into that journey. Welcome to a space where clay becomes a way to slow down, cultivate presence, and connect.
