Claire Sunderland

Claire Sunderland is a ceramic artist whose work celebrates the quiet beauty found in nature and the grounding rhythm of working with clay. Drawing inspiration from organic forms, textures, and the earthy tones of the natural world, Claire creates pieces that evoke a sense of calm, connection, and timeless simplicity.
Her practice explores the relationship between form and surface — from hand-built vessels and sculptural works to functional pottery rich with tactile detail. Claire’s approach is intuitive and meditative, allowing the process itself to guide the final outcome. Each piece carries the imprint of the maker’s hand and a deep appreciation for the imperfect harmony of natural materials.
