Get to know Keramikatelier Christiane Knaup

My ceramic studio is located in Müllheim, in southern Germany, in the beautiful Markgräflerland. The wonderful landscape and its friendly inhabitants inspire me time and time again to create my ceramic sculptures.
The material clay has fascinated me for over 20 years. All my works are handmade, with attention to detail, each object is unique.

Shaping and designing the clay with my hands, turning an idea into a sculpture, challenges me time and time again.

People are at the center of my sculptures. I see the human body as an expression of individual emotions. The attitude of people expresses their state of health: pride, determination, affection as well as depression, need for help or sadness. Modeling this expression of human emotions in sound is my big challenge.

In doing so, I explore the balance between figurative and abstraction over and over again. It is about concentrating on the essentials. The reduction of color should draw attention to the form.
