Seller's Story

Mario Klara – born in 1973 in the Bieszczady in Poland. Even as a child, working in his father’s brickworks, he was constantly in contact with clay, which sparked a genuine passion for this material. In 1993, he moved to Kraków, where he truly came into his own as an artist. He is a self-taught artist and a staunch advocate of the trial-and-error method. His approach is unique—he designs and builds the tools and equipment necessary for creating sculptures on his own. In his projects, he doesn’t limit himself to clay but also uses metal, wood, and glass, combining them into unexpected forms. His many years of experience continually yield increasingly ambitious projects. In his work, he employs original techniques and experiments with glaze like an alchemist in a laboratory, constantly seeking new forms of expression.
