Banfill Ceramics

I am a Montreal based potter. My inspiration for my work mainly comes from my love of nature and animals, and the art culture of Montreal that I have grown up with. I primarily make wheel-thrown pottery, but I also love to make small handbuilt ornaments, small sculptures and some jewelry. I have a few design themes that are the most prominent in my work: breasts, mountains, bears/animals, mushrooms and gnomes. I aim to recreate natural textures and forms in my work and turn them into a functional form of art that can be a part of someone’s everyday life. I also strive to use bright and vibrant colours for my glazes. I aim to continuously develop my style and skill, while exploring new forms and techniques.
