clay art
Sculpted earthen creations
Clay art encompasses creative work made from clay—sculpture, pottery, ceramics, and decorative objects shaped by hand or wheel.
The term often distinguishes artistic or craft work from industrial ceramics: She sells her clay art at local galleries.
Clay art ranges from functional pieces like bowls and vases to purely sculptural forms.
