Ceramics handmade by Malwina Kleparska

Malwina Kleparska is a ceramic artist and designer whose work combines sculptural forms with functional objects. Working predominantly in stoneware clay, she uses traditional hand building techniques such as coiling, rolling and pinching. Her hands are her main tools and by leaving visible marks from her fingertips in the soft clay, she wants to emphasise that each and every of her functional sculptures is one of a kind.

Born and raised in Stockholm, Malwina is since 2013 living and working in Gothenburg, Sweden. Her latest works focus around holes, where the hole itself becomes an interesting shape within her sculptural pieces. Besides working in her own studio, Malwina also works as a ceramics teacher.

With several solo and group shows and a number of collaborations in the recent years, she has got some media attention and has been seen in magazines such as Vogue, Plaza Interiör and Scandinavian Mind. In 2023 she was awarded the Cervera Handicraft Scholarship.
