Jemma Sassano is a Seattle based ceramic artist known for her whimsical creature vessels. Inspired by folklore and dark fantasy realms, she creates functional forms for daily use. Her work is influenced by the old ghost stories and folktales that are synonymous with growing up in rural New England and the solitude of nature.

Giving a form to her nostalgia through a lens of innocence and playfulness, she lets her intuition guide her through the ancient ritual of ceramic making.
