Artist Emily LoPresto, founder of E.Lo Ceramic Art, creates clean, modern, functional forms by hand for everyday use. Emily has been working with clay for more than half her life, and her current work is functional slip cast ceramic objects including vases, platters and tableware. 

With an emphasis on the process of mold making, her work begins as lines and shapes in 3D modeling software, using modern technology as an aid to create the prototypes used to make plaster molds. Each piece is then cast using colored porcelain and finished by hand, ultimately yielding beautiful, artistic, sustainable and functional pottery.
