You can shape everyday objects such as bowls, mugs, salad bowls, vases, drip trays and candle holders, as well as any other decorative item of your choice.
Katia, +13 years of experience
Potter and ceramicist
Katia Chiotti was born on March 31, 1977 in Auxerre, in northern Burgundy. After only three years of literary studies at the University of Dijon, she decided to stop everything and change course following her encounter with clay thanks to a close friend.
Having only done hand modeling and never worked on the wheel, she enrolled at the CFA of St Victor des Oules in the Gard to complete her CAP in a work-study program in a slip-casting workshop.
After earning her certificate, she attended other schools such as the National Center for Information and Professional Training in Ceramics in Puisaye, the region of the writer Colette, where she was able to learn the different ceramic decorating techniques.
She then joined the 2003 class of the Maison de la Terre in Dieulefit, in the Drôme provençale, where she was able to refine her technique, develop her style, and learn a few workshop tips during internships with many potters.
My workshop is located at 83 Rue de Beausset, in the historic center of Fréjus, between the town hall and the music school. It is on the upper floor of a very old building dating back to the Middle Ages.
