Some things take time to say.
In Marie Martin’s studio, words appear letter by letter, pressed into clay with patience. Each piece is built slowly.
There’s beauty in function, grace in simplicity — and memory in every mark.
Born in the French Alps, shaped by years in China, Ireland, Spain and the US, Marie’s ceramics carry quiet traces of a life lived across languages. What she makes is not just functional. A bowl might hold a fragment of a song. A vase, a line of ancestral rhythm.
Her new collection moves between presence and erosion: rough edges, shifting textures, glazes that catch the light just enough to make you look closer.
