Roberto Martín

Roberto Martín creates signature and designer ceramic pieces. He works with porcelain, crafting objects that he assembles and decorates manually, at a leisurely pace, with several firings until completion. He strives for his works to have their own identity; no two pieces are exactly alike; each tells its own story.

His work is based on the search for a language that has the ability to provoke emotions, sensations, and new thoughts. His creative process is based on classical and avant-garde references, but he also draws inspiration from a more personal world. He plays with the idea of repetition and explores all options, seeking a dialogue in his works, a thread that unites them, sometimes subtly and sometimes very obviously. This allows his to create versatile, honest, refined pieces with a playful touch.

He trained for four years at the Madrid ceramics schools EAFAC and ECM, so that in his work he carries out the entire production process for his ceramic pieces. From the initial modeling and plaster mold making to the final firing, it's a handcrafted product from start to finish, with a subtly imperfect finish and a wealth of research behind each piece.
