Maker of the Month: Mikey O'Riordan

July 7, 2024 Marc De'ath

I carve Lino to form Printworks generated from original hand drawn sketches. They to me are Wisdom Keepers, with messages, I interpret the messages in a way that is meaningful to me and find boundless intrigue and enjoyment in hearing what others see in these designs. I am always here to hear what you see. There’s a richness in this to me.

I am a maker of small things! I mostly crochet currently, but I dabble in small hand built ceramics and print making. I make cute little friends to bring joy, and I crochet fidget toys for people like me who are neurodiverse or have anxiety.

Free spirited with complete abandonment. Concentrating is not a strong point in life generally, clay gives me inner peace.

I am an artist, designer and visual magician. At the Makerspace the medium that I focus on is Linocutting so in that sense, I am a printmaker. I consider myself an illustrator as well, as I make a lot of hand drawn pieces. I’m passionate about healing, and exploring how we find and dance with this idea of ‘well-being’ and how we can reclaim our wild creativity. I focus particularly on women reclaiming their power and releasing the ‘good girl’ and ‘people pleasing’ conditioning that so many have received, myself included. Therefore my work is simultaneously very personal and speaking for a collective. I find that my audience deeply resonates and connects with it; it makes them feel seen.

I mostly make wheel thrown pottery and occasionally small sculptural objects. I want to make objects that are used and that become part of daily rituals. This is what I like about making functional ware; cups, bowls, containers that can be part of a larger narrative as well as a space for contemplation.

I have been potting on and off for the last 43 years. I studied ceramics in my hometown in Rovaniemi, Finnis Lapland. After graduating I have been doing pottery as a business and teaching. I was running pottery classes as therapy at the Lakes psychiatric hospital for 22 years which I enjoyed a lot.

July 30, 2023 Minahil Malik

I am a visual designer and illustrator who likes to explore different ways to express myself. As much as I am excited by the latest technologies and their promise, I am equally or more intrigued by the magic of making things by hand. Clay and ceramics are my newfound love that lets my whimsical world to break out of the two-dimensional to the three-dimensional one.
