ABOUT US
MORE CLAY LESS PLASTIC was born in 2014 as an open group on Facebook with the intent of creating an international network between ceramicists and the public.
THE MESSAGE we want to put through is very simple: more clay less plastic.
PLASTIC POLLUTION has reached dramatic levels. Reducing the use of plastic is a fundamental and urgent step to save the environment and improve the life quality of every living creature.
INVOLUTION AS A FORM OF EVOLUTION
The aim is to highlight respect for the environment by inviting people to rethink their daily habits, for example by avoiding disposable plastic.
Colanders, cups, plates, bowls … once made of clay and then substituted with plastic can be made of clay again.
PEOPLE
Today MORE CLAY LESS PLASTIC is coming out of the web to meet people, promoting the reduction of plastic usage at cultural events, workshops and exhibitions.
ARTISANS
MORE CLAY LESS PLASTIC believes in craft work as a means of returning to a more human dimension, through the use of objects that are not just “things” since they carry stories and ancient knowledge within.
By replacing a plastic utensil with a ceramic one we can all be part of a big revolution. To promote and value the use of ceramics in everyday life, while arising awareness of life quality and environmental issues, are all key points of MORE CLAY LESS PLASTIC philosophy.
