Hello friends!

My name is Emma and I’m the artist behind Mayer Ceramics. I always felt like artist statements are tricky and I remember struggling to write one when I was in art school so I’m going to make this casual and please excuse any spelling errors there is a reason I went to art school (I’m just kidding).

I did my BFA at Emily Carr University of Art & Design and have always loved narrating on pottery because pictures are something we understand as adults and children.

I want to create work that sparks joy in people and also reminds them to appreciate the small moments in life. I want to capture the first cup of coffee in the morning, the feeling of raindrops on my face and the comfort of a new soft sweater.

I hope my work causes you to pause and laugh and maybe take life a little bit less seriously.

I probably have more to say about my art but I hope it speaks for itself.

Please say a big hello to all my critters.

Love you oodles

Emma <3
