Sylvia Mallory – Writer & Ceramic Artist
Sylvia Mallory is a writer, storyteller, and ceramic artist whose work delves into the divine feminine within the universe, our bodies, and the symbols of womanhood. She is currently sculpting figurines that celebrate fat joy as a way to confront her own fatphobia and history with disordered eating as a fat woman. Creative writing and poetry naturally flow into her artistic practice, with her slab poetry series set to debut during winter solstice 2025.
Sylvia discovered ceramics two years ago and fell in love with handbuilding and sculpture. She is a studio member of Clay Ground in Richmond, VA. In addition, Sylvia is the founder and owner of The Crone House, a gallery that celebrates the women and femmes still making art.
