Description
Helen Levi is an artist, potter, photographer, and the owner of Helen Levi Ceramics. Based out of her studio in Queens, New York, Helen produces small-batch dinnerware and pottery that is as unique and beautiful as it is functional. Her ceramics have been featured everywhere from New York Magazine to Vogue, and, as you’ll hear in this conversation, she continues to grow and evolve as an artist and entrepreneur. In this episode, we talk to Helen about everything from her artistic journey to parenthood. We discuss her first love of photography, how she eventually transitioned into professional pottery, her first big break selling pottery, and how she has gone about balancing the growth of her business with her desire to keep it at a manageable size. We also discuss the role of place in her artistic process, her love of the southwestern United States, the transition from hobbyist to professional potter, how motherhood has changed her outlook, and much more.
