A course by LUIS CARDENAS
Luis Cárdenas is a professional designer and ceramicist. In 2012, he cofounded the ceramic workshop Popdots with Melissa Aldrete—a studio that aims to express the memorability of traditional materials in a contemporary context, seeking to strengthen the process as well as the concept.
Together, they develop collections of uniquely timeless pieces to increase the skill and understanding of ceramics, in the hope of encouraging experimentation and a continuous search for dialogue between the material, the being, and its environment.
