I’m María, an artist based in Edinburgh, currently making ceramics, teaching creative pottery workshops and spending as much time outdoors as I can.

My work is influenced by how nature helps us feel sane and grounded, inviting us to live a slow, simple and yet joyful life.

I explore the organic beauty that I find in nature, with a special interest in found objects and organic shapes.

This results in my ceramics bearing a significant presence of botanic motifs, spirals, organic textures, animals and astrology with a rustic, homely, earth-reverent feel to them.

Find my pottery at independent shops in the UK as well as in craft markets. Follow me on instagram @maripoyis to follow my most recent news!
