INI CERAMIQUE is a handmade ceramic practice of Inhee Ma, a Korean artist and designer currently based in France. Through the development of collections built around a minimalist wabi-sabi aesthetic, her stoneware creations generate a dialogue between craftsmanship, art, and fusing different cultures.
A graduate of the Montpellier School of Fine Arts, Inhee engages in a multidisciplinary practice, combining contemporary art, design, and craftsmanship. The INI CERAMIQUE collections celebrate the combination of aesthetic inspiration and the functionality of everyday objects. By combining visual qualities with functional design, Inhee creates artful additions to daily surroundings.
Through this latest collection, Inhee aims to reinterpret the works of painter Giorgio Morandi and channel her inspiration into a series of contemporary vessels. Other models draw inspiration from the complex patterns and shapes found in the legacy of ancient Greek vases, or traditional Korean ornaments, to which Inhee seeks to bring a sense of modernity.
All INI CERAMIQUE pieces are handcrafted by Inhee Ma herself in her studio in France.
