MARIA ROCA
Graduated from EINA University, Barcelona, she is a multidisciplinary designer, specialized in interior design. Passionate about spatial order and details, she has been experimenting with ceramics since 2017.
"For me, ceramics is a means of expression in the field of art, which allows me to express all the forms that interest me with my own hands. I like to create unique and handmade pieces, in a contemporary style, inspired by feminine and organic shapes that remind me natural elements. I am drawn to the concept of imperfect beauty, the graceful beauty of humble simplicity. Some of my pieces are inspired by Art Deco, in terms of geometric shapes and the frequent use of curves and spirals, but without forgetting minimalism.”
