Lorena Suarez Pottery - New Mexico

Lore Suarez’s pottery combines practicality with beauty, using traditional techniques like wheel throwing, pinching, and slabbing. Her work blends organic shapes with a modern sensibility, carefully crafted to be both visually striking and comfortable to use.

Although Lore grew up surrounded by art, it wasn’t until college that she discovered her passion for ceramics. Her first class brought mixed emotions—frustration from the unpredictable results, but also a sense of magic in the process.

Inspired by hiking and rock climbing, Lore embraced the natural textures of stones, soil, and plants, which influenced her artistic style. Today, her work reflects earthy tones, organic textures, and a quiet celebration of imperfection.

"Through my pottery, I seek to capture the beauty of nature’s textures, turning them into functional pieces that invite both use and admiration." - Lore
