Leilani Trinka

I am a collector, a maker and a teacher. Creating with clay makes me happy and encourages me to slow down and appreciate being in the moment. I use porcelain to handbuild unique, playful objects from thin, textured slabs. I like to make functional objects because they are easy to understand, they have the potential for human connections and they can be translated and reimagined into new forms. The shapes, textures and surfaces that I make are influenced by my travels and memories of different places I've experienced.
