About the Artist

Ildiko is a Cambridgeshire-based ceramic artist working from her home studio, where she hand-builds unique vessels and sculptural artworks for the contemporary home. 

 

Her work is deeply influenced by her lived experiences in the UK, Hungary, and Norway, and by her connection to Japanese culture and aesthetics. She explores the rhythms of water and sand, shaping undulating forms that respond to shifting light and stillness.

​

Rooted in tradition yet deeply personal, Ildiko's process draws on Japanese and traditional hand-building techniques—particularly kurinuki and slab construction. She embraces the raw tactility of stoneware clay, often leaving surfaces unglazed to highlight their earthy texture, imperfections, and natural resonance.

​

Each piece is an invitation to pause and reflect—to engage with the quiet dialogue between permanence and transformation. Ildiko is a member of London Potters and Anglian Potters, and is open to collaboration and exhibition opportunities.
