Helena Brennan

I am an Irish potter born in Dublin of an artistic family.

For over sixty years now I have been increasing my skills in throwing, sculpting, ash glazing and firing porcelain and stoneware clay in my own studio.

Co-Founder of the Irish Crafts Council and Ceramics Ireland in the seventies I have been exhibiting, teaching and been commissioned worldwide.

In 2014 I was presented with honorary membership of the International Academy of Ceramics.

Twenty years ago I moved my studio from Dun Laoghaire to a woodland near Avoca where I am building my latest kiln which will be wood fired in the Oriental manner.

The natural beauty of Wicklow “The Garden of Ireland” is my inspiration.
