Inês Valenti

Inês Valenti is a Portuguese ceramic artist and the founder of Inês Valenti Studio, based in Cascais, Portugal. With a degree in Sculpture from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Lisbon, her artistic practice brings together her background in visual arts and a deep, intuitive connection with clay. Working primarily through hand-building and the traditional coiling technique, she creates unique sculptural forms that explore the relationship between matter, gesture, texture and space. Her work is characterised by organic shapes, subtle earthy tones and carefully carved surfaces, where repetition and imperfection become expressions of time and memory. Rooted in a slow and contemplative process, her practice seeks to capture a sense of stillness and presence, creating objects that invite quiet observation and a closer connection with the material world.

The pieces are exclusively handmade and unique and can be made to order. The production time takes 30 to 60 days.
