Miae began working with clay after a long career in the film industry as an animator and visual effects artist in Los Angeles. She did not encounter clay until later in life, but its tactile and transformative nature captivated her immediately. She pursued formal training at Glendale College in L.A., completing a ceramics programme in 2018 before establishing a home studio. She moved to London in 2020, where she now lives and works.
Having grown up in East Germany, a spirit of friction and tension between perceived opposites informs much of Schneider’s work.

Loretta began her practice in ceramics via a career in graphic arts, textile design and sculpture. During pregnancy, she found working on sculptural forms too heavy and moved across to ceramics. That was the start of her fascination with the medium as it allows her the freedom to explore her enduring passions of form, colour, texture and mark-making.
