Clara Holt Ceramic artist

Clara Holt

Clara Holt is an Italian artist. She was born in 1987 and raised in Pescara, a small town on the seaside in central Italy. She attended classical studies in high school and became passionate about ancient Greek culture, literature, and mythology.

In 2006, she moved to Milan, where she attended a science university and started working for a multinational company in advertising and television production. Meanwhile, she cultivated an interest in fine art, attending illustration classes and workshops and studying printmaking at the Castello Sforzesco School of Art in Milan, working mainly with etching and aquatint techniques. In 2018, she began working on ceramics, primarily focusing, from the beginning, on making pieces centered on decoration. She devoted herself entirely to her artistic career, pursuing her personal research, experimenting with different techniques and materials and teaching decoration techniques.

Clara’s work focuses on storytelling, the ongoing impulse to tell and convey stories, characters, and experiences. She is often inspired by mythology, folk traditions, legends, and real or fantastic tales of the places she lives or explores. Her first inspiration was Greek mythology, which she has studied and delved into since childhood. Her subjects are often inspired by fairy tales and popular storytelling; the stories handed down and those full of symbols, which tell us about the most irrational, unconscious, and hidden sides of human nature.

Clara exhibited her work in Italy and abroad, participating in group exhibitions and fairs. Today, she works in her studio in Milan, often teaching ceramics courses in Italy and abroad. She also collaborates with interior designers and architectural firms on custom projects.
