Firuze Avcı is an Istanbul based ceramic artist who started her clay journey with wheel throwing classes in 2015, right after graduating from Koç University with a degree in sociology.
She turned her home into a studio and has spent 6 years to learn and improve her wheel throwing techniques. Recently she has been enjoying working on figurative sculptures and textures.
Mostly a self-taught ceramist, Firuze has worked with ceramic instructors and learnt glaze chemistry and figurative sculpture.
Private wheel-throwing and hand-building classes are taught in her pottery studio, The Claybenders, with an emphasis on exploring the clay and the wheel and meditative play.
