I’m Nida, the founder of KOPU Studio. What fascinates me most about pottery is the process — meditative, sensitive, and free. For me, working with clay is like therapy — it relaxes, lets me dive into the depths of creativity, and helps to forget the daily rush by bringing my focus to the here and now. It’s this love for clay that I want to share with you!

I studied philosophy and education, but clay has taken my life in a different direction. In the summer of 2024, I founded my own ceramics studio. My first introduction with clay was in primary school, later I studied clay in various private studios and did a wheel-throwing course in India. Now, after completing several practical and theoretical ceramics courses, I lead hand-building workshops for both children and adults alongside making my own clay creations by hand and on the wheel.
