Miyelle Sculptures

Miyelle creates ceramic sculptures that reflect the nuances of the human experience. Our work is an exploration of antithesis—the tensions between strength and fragility, solitude and connection, stability and change.

We find beauty in this duality. Our design language juxtaposes organic forms inspired by the body, water, and the solar system with clean, geometric lines. Smooth curves meet sharp edges, and exaggerated proportions are used to find harmony in contrast.

Miyelle was born from a desire to reconnect with the tactile in an increasingly digital world. With roots in graphic design, we apply principles of form, colour, and space to the ancient medium of clay, creating a dialogue between contemporary theory and elemental materials.

We believe clay is the perfect medium to express metamorphism. It is mouldable and volatile, transformed by hand, environment, and fire. In the same way, our lives are shaped by our choices and the forces around us. Ultimately, our pieces are an attempt to capture the beauty of these transformations, celebrating the complex and elegant shapes of our lives.
