JOANA

Joana is from Lisbon and studied product design in Caldas da Rainha, with a focus on ceramics and glass. She is particularly interested in traditional techniques and loves working on the potter's wheel, which has been male-dominated for so long. She regularly works with her friend and mentor Senhor Henrique, who has been running a pottery workshop in her grandmother's village for decades. Two generations work together and learn from each other.
