It was a natural choice for me to study industrial design at University in San Marino where I developed an interest in ceramics and began to discover the possibilities of combining clay with other materials and using specialist firing techniques to produce contemporary ceramic art.&nbsp;While a student at university I practiced daily and realized a number of projects utilising clay as my raw material. One specific project was a vocal resonator that was exhibited on the stand of Casabella in the Salone del mobile Milano expo.I ve continued my carriere in design and on 2014 I ve graduated in Product Design in Venice, one of my favorite city to live.&nbsp;&nbsp;Studying under the master potter Roberto Aiudi I began exploring experimental techniques and built my own Raku Kiln to refine my Raku firing technique that produces a distinctive cracking effect in the final glaze. The spirt of Raku embraces the 4 elements: earth, fire, water and air and allows you to create objects as unique as nature itself creates.<img src="https://f.ezycourse.net/4541/cmaus7v6o00l5vb9n0grxb9f4.webp" alt="image" style="width: 476px; height: auto; cursor: pointer; margin: 0px auto;" draggable="true">I am continually refining and developing my skills in Raku, Naked Raku, which allows you to create amazing patterns; Raku Dolce, the traditional coral clay method from Arezzo; Saggar Firing, using a container to protect the piece during firing; Obvara Firing or Baltic Raku, that uses flour and yeast during firing; Horse Hair decoration; and Stoneware.Contact:<a target="_blank" href="https://www.dilucaceramics.com/">https://www.dilucaceramics.com/</a><a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href="http://www.instagram.com/diluca.ceramics">www.instagram.com/diluca.ceramics</a>
