I mainly make tableware because I love how functional ceramics are an intersection between art, design, and craft. I am inspired by the world around me and try to capture small moments and memories in my pieces. I like to work with repetitive symbols and motifs and aim for my pieces to be unique enough to stand on its own but also cohesive enough to be used as a set. I am interested in how objects can play a subtle, quiet, but necessary role in food and living.

I do a variety of techniques in my work but I love hand building the most. I love the slowness and intention it requires and I love the feeling of being directly connected to the pieces I make. My pieces are functional decorative pieces for peoples homes! I am inspired by so many things but very much inspired by plants, flowers, bodies, colors, shapes and the outdoors. I love to lean into organic forms and wonky shapes. I like to explore color and play with illustration and bring lightness to my pieces.

Mud Hedz pipes are designed and made by Clay artist Ruth Plaster. They have been described by observers as being “little pieces of art”. Mud Hedz pipes are slip cast in earthenware clay. They are made in molds that are cast from objects, hand sculpts or a combination of both. Mud Hedz pipe designs are inspired by the process and aesthetic of vintage salt and pepper shakers and 1960's & 70's hobby ceramic wares. In addition to being charming, fun and visually pleasing, Mud Hedz pipes are well made, with a focus on working well. They are easy to clean, very tactile and have a great palm feel.
