Hi, I am Grace Alley, the maker behind Nomadic Ceramic. I grew up in Golden, Colorado and pursued a degree in Anthropology from Colorado State University. My interest in studying past societies and human cultures as well as traveling abroad, ultimately informed my passion for creating pottery and ceramics. My work is heavily influenced by my interest in foreign cultures both current and prehistoric. It is my greatest honor to use a material and technique that is similar to what humans used tens of thousands of years ago. I believe clay working connects our present to our past and reveals to us the spirit behind material expression. Working with clay is not only a meditative expression, but also an avenue for tapping into the intangible.
