Summary
Minoo Sayyah Sina started pottery at an art workshop initially as a hobby which grew to be a fundamental part of Minoo's life. At first Minoo stared wheel throwing and then handmade pottery became her favorite, especially pinch, slab, and recently kurinuki. After working with various clay, Minoo passed her glazing course and then molding. Minoo loves making pottery and does it with love and passion. Minoo's work is unique, simple, and imperfect.
