Giulia Valori is a ceramic artist, technician, and teacher. She works at Studio U in Hackney Wick, part of Grow Studios. Her pieces are earthy and her work is mostly influenced by Japanese tradition and Ancient Roman shapes. 

She will share her skills throwing on the wheel as well as the main hand-building techniques: pinching, coiling, and slab-building. 
Her practice is rooted in finding beauty every day, and joy in experiencing the delights of making something out of nothing. 
She is particularly interested in the elemental aspect of the craft as well as connecting with a process that has existed since the dawn of our species. 

Ceramics is for her a way to fully feel and connect to our sense of touch. It is a sensorial experience from start to the finished piece. It enables us to open ourselves to feeling and communicating.
