Carmelina Greco

Carmelina Greco (b.1966 Melbourne, Australia) is self-taught in the field of ceramics and has been creating sculptures since she was a young teenager. She draws inspiration from her daily life, including the beautiful beaches and mountains around her home. Her abstract works are sensual, playful and organic, recalling the natural forms of the Australian landscape. Carmelina employs coiling and other hand-building techniques to create her works, using Australian stoneware clays. She leaves her works unglazed, celebrating the natural colours and textures of the fired clay.
