Ama Adansi-Pipim creates ceramic objects focused on cultural narratives, artefacts and the materiality, drawing inspiration from her Ghanaian heritage, British upbringing and surroundings.

Ama's creative practice consists of two main strands: sculptural collectible objects and design products. Her bodies of work encompass both functional and non-functional pieces, utilising various exploration processes, such as hand-carving or wheel-throwing. These works are enhanced with engobes and muted earthy-tone glazes. The shapes she creates symbolise everyday pathways back home, interwoven with modernity and her cultural identity.

Influenced by her experience as a designer, Ama’s design process is an integral part of every project. She enjoys bringing ideas to life.

Based in London, Ama’s studio is located in Holborn at Cockpit Arts (Bloomsbury).
