What sets Suvira‘s work apart is colour: cool-tone classic glazes and those earth hues produced in his wood fired kiln. He produces high fired stoneware works which include many sculptural vessels and landscape abstractions. Central to his range of functional pieces are collections of wares for the daily rituals for tea, dining and flower arrangement.

Cheryl Campbell
I have been creating in Clay for over 40 years in the village of Burringbar at my studio. The entire process when working with clay, from the reclaiming of materials to the final firing brings me unsurmountable joy. I indulge myself into this creative practice and often time becomes irrelevant and I find happiness, peace and self-worth.
