Gabriela Bins, a Brazilian designer and artist based in Portugal. Focusing intently on the inherent qualities of form, texture, and weight, her ceramic work examines the profound impact a single, physical object can have on the atmosphere of a space. Utilising traditional techniques like hand-carving from a solid mass of clay, Bins creates pieces that define their surroundings through their raw, organic presence. Read our interview with her.
