Welcome!

Have you ever felt the rough bark of a tree or smelled fresh sand beneath your feet? Have you ever held wet clay in your hands? Nature teaches us patience, joy, and humbleness. I chose clay to explore those values, to express myself and connect with others.

I aim to create tactile pleasure with my work. Imagine the feel of a smooth glaze on your lips and the roughness of wild clay on your hands. My creative process triggers different sensations that I try to capture in the work. The rhythmic spinning of the wheel as a vase rises tall is pure poetry. Creating with clay is a sensual experience that engages all our senses. If the pieces I make act like a small stimulus for pleasure, I would be so satisfied.

I hope you find here something that resonates with you. Thanks for your time.

When working in a long process like ceramics, each step counts.

Spiral wedging, a very satisfying action when clay is soft, a very complex one if not.

On Going course

Wednesdays 17-20hs / Thursdays 10-13hs

Monthly course. Once a week, we gather to learn all techniques needed to create your own ceramic pieces. Creations take time and engaging in a longer course allows you to build things more carefully, prepare glazes, try different things and find your “signature”.

School of Clay Course

(Two times a month)
A new course for those who want to deepen their knowledge of ceramics. We will study basic glazes, firing, and the foundations of the craft through samples and practical investigation. The course includes 6 classes, a discount for the Regular Ongoing Workshop, and the possibility to apply for the Green Álamo Membership.

Álamo membership… Coming soon

People sitting at a table with pottery and ceramics in a well-lit room, possibly engaging in pottery or ceramics workshop.

…take place in the center of Zagreb, at Álamo Pottery and Ceramics Studio. I lead the sessions in English, Spanish or broken Croatian… but the real language is clay!

Meditation and Clay

On demand

I used to hold a weekly sensorial experience where after a guided meditation we jumped to our creative work with clay. Currently, I do this for private sessions or special occasions. You can organize this as an original birthday celebration or team building experience or a relaxing and recharging experience for your friends. We explore different topics and craft unique objects that speak about ourselves.

Private and Unique Experiences

Do you want to celebrate in an original way?
Let`s plan an exclusive creative session for your friends. Birthdays, babyshowers or a different Friday night hang-out. It is fun!

Wheel classes

Book an individual class. Learn to work and build pieces with this old technique or just experiment the power of centering yourself in a meditative circular grounding flow.

The power of clay

Clay is a noble material and a great teacher. Clay is ancient. It has memory. It responds to all stimuli, and always reveals something we have within - weather we like it or not! You can shape clay with your hands and make all sort of  things: from practical cups to abstract sculptures.
Clay help us connect to ourselves, keeps us focused and calm, and it's a fantastic territory to explore and even to fail!

“The atmosphere in combination with Milenka guiding me and offering interesting information about clay, gave my body what it needed: a safe space to unwind.”
Tess - 30 years old

“I can still sense the feeling of soothing clay under my fingers!”

Vesna - 30 years old

“The flow of the process of building a bowl, the balance between laughter and aha moments… I left in state of calmness that still lasts…”
