ABOUT ·

Born in Padua in 1991, she studied graphic and web design.
After many years in the digital world she decided to turn up to craftsmanship, driven by a strong need for a creative freedom and relatioship with matter.


She worked for a furniture design studio discovering several materials, until the coup de foudre with ceramic.
Always hungry for knowledge and research, Claudia Breda started a partnership with the historical company Ceramica Vicentina, run by Roberto Dal Sasso, near Nove.


Now she personally realises her pieces by hand and has collaborations with galleries and design studios in Europe and USA. In addition, she teaches ceramic courses on coiling technique, raku, naked raku, terra sigillata.

THE CLAY

Clay is her dialogue,
her hands shape instinctively,
a need, a journey in the intimacy,
a freedom affirmation.
The sky and the earth are her balance,
the lines are her search for stillness,
the suggestion of a communion,
her request of peace.
