Kana London

Kana London was born fortuitously as a result of Ana Kerin's training in sculpture & her background in fine art, eventually becoming a fully developed project in London in 2012. Sculpting and an affinity for working with clay led her to wanting to apply the principles of her art work - the tactile, hand built aesthetics, the traces of her fingerprints and hands on the surface - into functional ceramics. Her approach to work is experimental and playful, as she never follows a procedure, and invent new recipes daily. She works with a unique mixture of clays and mix her own glazes, often turning her back on traditional ceramic practice. Hand building, rather than turning on the wheel, further emphasizes the individuality of each piece. All of her work is: stoneware, food safe glazed, made from durable materials & suitable for use in the oven & dish washer (though, as with any precious ceramics, we would advise hand washing & to avoid frequent oven use).
