Citizen Stone Ceramics

Showcase with

Alessandra Ricciuti

Sunday, June 8th from 3-6pm

Light snacks and drinks will be served

Join us for an afternoon of show and tell from one of our favorite artists at Moona Star. Alessandra will take us through her journey as an artist and inspiration showing us all her incredible pieces.

Alessandra Ricciuti is a Los Angeles-based ceramic artist whose work draws inspiration from the raw beauty of the desert landscape and the spirit of the American Southwest. Working primarily in hand-built forms, her pieces blend earthy textures, natural tones, and elemental materials like turquoise glass to evoke a sense of timelessness and rootedness. Each piece she creates is a tactile exploration of contrast, rough and refined, ancient and modern, structured and organic.

Alessandra’s background in design and her deep appreciation for wabi-sabi aesthetics inform her distinct visual language, resulting in sculptural vessels, tiles, and wall art that feel both artful and grounded. Her work often features layered clay, carved patterns, and intentionally imperfect forms that celebrate the beauty of irregularity and soulfulness in craft.
