Emily Brookfield

Emily is a Melbourne based ceramic artist and pottery teacher. Her practice centres on the meaning of connection, whether it be through the meditative making process or the links to the community.

For Emily, clay is a sensory medium and she is drawn to its versatility and tactile nature. While using a combination of making work on the wheel and hand-building techniques to construct expressive and playful pieces, she also allows the materiality of the clay to guide her hand.

Emily began teaching pottery classes and workshops in a range of studios across Melbourne in 2020 and continues to share her skill and enthusiasm with the local community.
