The potter

I’m Leah - potter, photographer & artist - creating funky & functional one-of-a-kind ceramics to help your homes feel a little more home-y.

I have been throwing on the wheel since 2019, with the goal to bring tactile connection back to my art form. Now I mostly handbuild, focusing on my “multibowl” forms, and larger sculptures & lamps.

I believe that drinking our morning coffee from a handmade mug helps slow us down and stay mindful. It is more important than ever to make our homes a sanctuary. Functional art honors the hour we spent cooking a meal & the ground from which those ingredients came from. Building stronger connections - whether they are to people, food, or the things that fill our space - makes life a little more joyful to live.

So let’s surround ourselves with meaningful vessels for a deliberate life. 

 
 

Behind the name

Leah Tries Again comes from the idea that we are all made up of a series of attempts.

And that is a beautiful thing. 

Creation is about repetition. We try, we fail, we succeed, we fail again. It is all part of the process.

Each pot available on this page is a unique iteration of the previous, constantly changing & evolving with no clear end goal in sight. Just love for art & the things our hands & minds can create.
