After thirty plus years in clay, Ms. Montalbano has worked large and small but always with elegance and animation in her work. She believes that clay is the wave of the future and the link to the past. And the medium lends itself to play, contemplation and camaraderie. Her work is best described as sculptural vessels.

I'm Marina Caliari and I'm Brazilian. I got my BFA in fine arts where I discovered ceramics. I attended a masters program in restoration of cultural heritage in Barcelona, Spain, specializing in Conservation of archaeological ceramics. In 2012 I fell in love with making ceramics all over again and I’ve been hand-building sculptural and functional work ever since. I love incorporating materials like wood and felt into my pieces. I’m inspired by all the women around me, nature, the ocean, how we represent our memories, and the relationships between people and their objects. I celebrate all things imperfect.
