Sophie Manessiez

Sophie Manessiez discovered her love for ceramics over 30 years ago when she met and observed a potter at work while studying art. She was fascinated by the precision of the gestures, subjugated by the movement of the wheel and seduced by the touch of the material and the pieces that appear.

After several years of practice, training and study, she developed her own body of work. Her work in ceramics today reflects her attraction to an aesthetic where the meeting of material and form becomes the subtle elegance that gives each piece its unique character.

Sophie's studio is located in the Eastern Townships where she handcrafts each piece.
