Alyssa Goss
Artist Bio
Alyssa Goss is a Los Angeles-based ceramic artist who is known for her truly unique and exceptional pieces. Goss pushes the boundaries of traditional ceramic art through her mastery of color, form, and glazing techniques.
What sets Goss apart is her fearless approach to both shape and color. Her signature daring forms break free from conventional ceramic traditions, creating sculptural pieces that challenge expectations and redefine what ceramic art can be. These bold shapes serve as canvases for her equally audacious color combinations—unexpected pairings that shouldn't work but somehow create perfect harmony under her skilled hand.
Central to Goss's artistic practice is her commitment to innovative glazing techniques. She is particularly renowned for her custom lava glazes, which she meticulously mixes herself to achieve unique textures and effects that cannot be found anywhere else. These distinctive glazes add depth, movement, and tactile interest to her already striking forms, creating pieces that are as compelling to touch as they are to view.
Sustainability plays an important role in Goss's work, as she frequently incorporates recycled clay into her pieces. This environmentally conscious approach not only reflects her values but also adds another layer of uniqueness to each creation, as the recycled materials bring their own history and character to the finished work.
Working from her Los Angeles studio, Goss continues to explore the endless possibilities of ceramic art, constantly experimenting with new techniques and pushing her creative boundaries. Her pieces are sought after by collectors who appreciate both her technical mastery and her bold artistic vision that transforms everyday clay into extraordinary art.
