Polka Dot 01

Sale price$909

The Polka Dot Collection was designed during the pandemic; it embodies simple beauty in the speckled ivory surfaces as the texture of natural stone. The objects' exaggerated proportions and unexpected curves make them each appear surreal. Polka Dot 01 carries a tactile, handmade essence... as if shaped by instinct rather than precisions. The beauty of imperfection in design is outrightly celebrated. Made from stoneware and grog.

Designed in 2020.

About the Maker

Anna Demidova

Anna Demidova is a Lisbon-based ceramics artist and designer whose work is deeply influenced by her surroundings and her lifelong passion for art and design. With a background in interior design and photography, Anna brings a multidisciplinary perspective to her creations. Her journey with ceramics began with a one-month class at a local studio in her hometown, sparking her creative calling.
In 2019, Anna moved to Portugal, where living near the ocean in Lisbon profoundly shaped her artistic vision. Water and liquidity became central themes, inspiring her abstract shapes, soft lines, coarse textures, and restrained color palette. She draws from the fluidity of water and the interplay of light and texture to create pieces that feel organic and alive.
For Anna, shape is the key to her creative expression. Her intuitive and concept-driven approach allows the clay to guide her process, emphasizing natural textures and often foregoing glaze to highlight the raw, tactile quality of the material. Each piece explores the balance between art, craftsmanship, and design.
Anna is more interested in sculptural aspects than the functional part. The portfolio includes lamps, vases, and other design objects that blur functional and artistic boundaries.
Her works evoke bionic shapes, natural textures, and living tissue, reflecting her fascination with the human body and the natural world. She works solely with hand-building techniques, embracing the surprises that emerge during the creative process.
Throughout this time, Anna has already participated in the exhibitions among Europe, Lisbon design week and Paris design week.
She works directly with clients, architects and interior designers around the world to create unique artworks and design pieces.
