I'm Bhavya. The Potter's Place was born out of my passion for pottery. I began my journey and work with clay at the Clay Station Pottery Studio back in 2019 and I instantly fell in love with it. I started with hand-building and slowly worked towards my interest which was being able to learn throwing on the wheel. I soon started to learn to wheel throw under the direction of Aastha Sahal and one and a half year later, I am working(learning never ends) towards my dream of becoming a full-time potter.    My main aim is to share the joy of pottery that I experience with others and to refine my craft in my own studio, wanting to experiment with new techniques and to teach whatever little I have learned till now. Through the studio, I aim at creating a community studio - a platform and a space - where experts and amateurs can learn, share and enjoy this art form in its truest form. This studio is a place where potters from across the city can come together and practice, work and learn from one another. Knowing this journey will definitely teach me more and more.
