About Me

Introduction

My name is Alan and my wife and I are currently running a small studio based in Singapore called Terra and Ember. We make mostly functional wares and we are interested in making plaster molds and glazes.

What I Love about Ceramics

The problem solving aspect of it when we finally get the results we want!

How I started with ceramics

I first came into contact with pottery when I was doing my Postgraduate research and it transited from hobby to passion, now I am doing it full time while my wife helps on part-time basis as she has a full time job. We love to experiment with anything ceramics related as being self-taught, we are always hungry for knowledge! For now, we are interested in making our own glazes and hopefully to retail them to our fellow home based potters in Singapore.

What inspires me

Consistencies and geometry inspires me.

What I'm working on at the moment

Focusing on learning than making!
