About Karla

Karla Rivera is a ceramic artist born and raised in Mexico City who has made her home in Hamilton, ON. In 2021 she graduated with a Bachelor degree of Craft and Design in Ceramics from Sheridan College.

 Her work consists of functional and sculptural ceramics. Through  composition, using varying materials, her intention is to “build a bridge between beliefs, thoughts and experiences”. She is interested in working with forms that can serve more than one purpose.
