Hello,
I’m Wulan, a ceramic artist, designer, mother, and storyteller based in Montréal.
My journey with clay began after becoming a mother — a way to reconnect with myself and nurture creativity in the midst of new rhythms of life. What started as quiet moments at the wheel soon grew into a full practice in mindfulness, while balancing motherhood, and the beauty of imperfection - both in clay and personal life.
With a background in graphic design and illustration, I’ve always been drawn to form, texture, and storytelling. Clay became my grounding medium — one that reminds me to slow down, soften into stillness, and embrace the intentionality of slow craft. Each piece I create is more than functional ware; it’s a vessel of calm, designed to bring ritual and reflection into everyday living for both myself and others.
As a mother and artist, I’m inspired daily by the simple rituals of care, play, and stillness. My collections — from tumblers and matcha bowls to incense holders and small home vessels — are handcrafted in small batches, allowing each piece to carry its own character and soul.
Beyond the studio, I co-run Support Your Friends Market & Atelier with my husband, a community space dedicated to uplifting local makers and celebrating the stories behind their craft.
I hope my work invites you to pause, breathe, and find a sense of calm in the small rituals that make up daily life.
Alongside my collections, I’m always happy to create custom pieces. Whether it’s a special matcha bowl, a set of tumblers, or tableware for your home or café, wedding favours, I am open for commissions and would love to bring your ideas to life.
