In early 2017, I was commissioned to create a ceramic collection for the face & body spa in downtown NYC, Chillhouse. The owner, Cyndi Ramirez provided a mood board and specifics such as colors and looks of their nail art. As a first step I presented multiple designs for vases, pattern ideas and created the collaborative brand sign-off.
Cyndi chose the tall mug and a slim cylinder-shaped bud vase with a Matisse style art in black, teal, and orange, as well as an orange to white gradation design which mimics the East Village shop’s fresh and slick facade. These pieces were hand-built in stoneware, free-hand painted with underglaze, and coated with clear glaze. The ceramics were used as the shop’s signature decor and as a backdrop for pop-up events such as the Nike Air Society events.

Price varies depending on the project scale based on size, style and quantity. Please contact for a quote.

Meet the Creator
Wescover creator since 2020
Specializes in creating sculptural ceramic objects using various hand-building techniques.

I started making ceramics in 2012 after more than 15 years of working in a NY brand, visual and design consultation studio. My hand-built ceramic work focuses on two spectrums - one, the Japanese wabisabi inspired pieces which exudes the quality of transience, and the other, a minimal approach that is an interpretation of nature and study of shapes and forms.
My commissioned work includes a collection for Maman NYC, Chillhouse NYC, 97 Crosby NYC, Paloma Wool Madrid, White is Good Beijing, Virgil Normal LA, Departamento LA, Seldom Seen SF, Voyager SF & LA, Tekuno Tea Shop SF, as well custom pieces for private collectors. I have held a month-long pop-up shop at Voyager SF in 2019 where I showcased ceramics and fashion as well as a pop-up event of ceramic works at Seldom Seen SF in 2018. In addition I have wholesaled for Steven Alan US between 2014-2016 and many of my ceramic works were featured in publications such as W Magazine Culture, Bloomberg Businessweek, Steven Alan The Designer Edit, Paloma Wool, Coastal Living and more. I am also a fashion designer specializing in innovative draping. In 2018 I published the book 'Vase and Flower’ which showcases my vases in combination with ikebana flower artists from around the globe.
