Laura De Benedetti started her career in ceramics making domestic ware, such as cups, teapots, plates and bowls to enhance the daily experience of food sharing.
Her main inspiration is the landscape of her home of origin in Northern Italy, which informs her choice of materials. She uses hard, white porcelain to create the “soft” forms of her vessels and the fluid crystalline glazes produce her rich surfaces and pools of intense colour.

My ceramics are mostly figurative, either large sculptural pieces or smaller ones coloured with underglazes and glazes. Sometimes I make bowls or plates.
My steam fixed scarves are printed and painted in layers of texture and colour. I start off with theme but they are mostly abstract.
My prints are usually linocuts or drypoint, figurative and monochrome. I make both greetings cards and larger prints and have added small cards of my paintings to my repertoire.
My inspirations are ancient, eastern and 20th century art and design, myth, history, circuses and dance.
Porcelain Platters, ceramics and paintings inspired by observations of people, patterns and places.
