I had the pleasure of meeting miranda lee the founder and ceramic artist behind laconic story at city of craft this past year.

Laconic story ceramics.

Ceramic interdisciplinary practice. Laconic story so they draw inspiration from endangered or little know animals when designing and creating each piece then they add a little colour and voila. Beasts and stories that speaks for itself. The idea behind laconic story is that i make ceramic animal sculptures objects that is completed with a short story i can share about specific animals species at risk of extinction.

The animals are also endangered and or esoteric but are mostly animals i am unlikely to sculpt into wall sculptures also i am running out of space to store them i am running some test. Using very few words. Laconic ceramics stand out among the various types of production of greek ceramics. Using very few words.

Ceramic interdisciplinary practice. Laconic story laconic. It is documented here by a famous kylix goblet made in sparta shortly before the middle of the 6th century bc and attributed to the painter of archesilas ii.
