About us

At Clay Culture, we are a collective of visionaries, artists, and technical experts driven by a shared passion for the transformative power of ceramics and glass artistry. Led by founder Japneet Keith, our team brings together a unique blend of skills, experiences, and perspectives, all working towards a common goal: to inspire and elevate the art of pottery.

Japneet, an industrial designer and accomplished ceramic artist, has dedicated her career to fusing nature-inspired artistry with technical craftsmanship, building a creative community around Clay Culture. She collaborates closely with Gary Hambleton, a master ceramicist renowned for his expertise in traditional high-temperature firings and his dedication to elevating ceramic techniques through hands-on workshops and live demonstrations. Together, they cultivate a learning environment that encourages both artistic exploration and technical precision.

Supporting the studio’s spatial design and ambiance, architect Gagan Singh brings a refined architectural vision to Clay Culture. His expertise in crafting functional and inspiring spaces enhances every corner of the studio, creating an environment that nurtures creativity and collaboration. Each design decision, from workshop layouts to sustainable elements, is crafted to support the hands-on, tactile nature of pottery-making.

Adding invaluable technical insight, Mr. Harminder Singh, a pioneer in metal works through his renowned company Minda Industries, provides guidance on tool development and kiln design. With decades of experience in technical sheet metal work and equipment design, he has transformed Clay Culture into a hub of innovation, helping artists and studios advance their craftsmanship with his custom-engineered solutions.

Together, our team at Clay Culture unites artistry, technical expertise, and thoughtful design to create a space where artists and enthusiasts can explore, learn, and grow. We invite you to experience this vibrant community and to let Clay Culture be a part of your journey in the world of ceramics and glass.
