Carina Claassens has worked as an artist and visual designer for over two decades. Her ceramic work draws from formative memories of a Southern African landscape—its textures, rhythms, and silences. That relationship with place remains central to her practice, even when working from her current studio,Clay Café Nederland in Haarlo, where visitors can experience her sculptural and functional pieces in person.
Claassens’ approach to ceramics is tactile and intentional. The surface of each piece is shaped by memory and political consciousness, particularly her ongoing engagement with feminism—not as theme, but as lived practice. Her vessels often carry both delicacy and defiance, holding stories that are felt as much as seen.
