Ava Kapetanakis is a ceramist based in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Originally from Charlotte, NC, Ava found her love for wheel throwing in her freshman high school ceramics class. Her work is inspired by: vintage upholstered furniture, costume design, movie wardrobe, Greek Amphoras, and vintage prints.

Ava’s wares can be found on her website and on the shelves of small businesses all over the country. She also offers private wheel throwing lessons in her personal studio and teaches ceramics workshops for BKLYN Clay & Studio Barro. She has recently finished a month long residency at Skop art in Skopelos, Greece.
