Captivated by the alchemy of earth to fire to stone, Auckland based artist Emma Badeia seeks to honour and elevate this simplicity through her ceramic practice – offering an intentional place for it in our day to day.

Through the dedicated development of her craft and influential encounters in both New Zealand and Indonesia, Emma has accumulated a rich and diverse ceramics education. With attention to tactile forms, spontaneous surfaces and organic firing techniques, her pieces are designed to lead an existence that doesn’t stray too far from their humble beginnings.

A fascination for the ever-engaging dialogue between artist and practice ensures Emma’s continual exploration in what seems will be a life long affair with earth and fire.

We are very lucky to have Emma's wonderfully organic ceramics as a part of our offering at Everyday Needs.
