Maud Timmermans · Rotterdam
Maud Timmermans is an artist and ceramicist based in Rotterdam and the founder of TIMM ceramics. Working across ceramics, woodworking, and object design, her practice explores the relationship between people and everyday objects, drawing attention back to material, process, and the traces left by the maker’s hand.
With a background in product design and a practice rooted in craft, Maud approaches making as a way to question how objects are produced, used, and valued. Through ceramics, she explores repetition, technical challenges, and subtle variations that reveal the time and attention behind handmade work. Alongside clay, her interest in woodworking and textiles often enters her practice, creating objects that move between function, play, and sculptural form.
Our selection brings together ceramic vessels, handcrafted games, and wall pieces that reflect Maud’s interest in visible craftsmanship, material exploration, and the quiet narratives held within everyday forms.
