My name is Maya, known as Mimi by my family.
I'm a self-taught artist living in Geelong, Australia, making whimsical ceramics that remind me of my childhood. My love for storytelling and animals intersects as my biggest inspiration for my pieces.
The Journey Here
I begun learning ceramics in 2023 after spending the previous few years with air drying clay. The jump to ceramics felt like a big, but necessary step towards creating long lasting, functional pieces.
I closed my online store in 2022 to learn ceramics, and have been expanding my practice across handbuilding and wheel since then.
2026 brings a new life back to Mimi Clay, and I am so excited to share this evolution with you.
