Hi! I’m Michelle - the hands and founder of MYRE STUDIO.

MYRE STUDIO is a rooted ceramic business run on a small-quantity drop basis.

Rooted in the mire of the earth, where raw material is taken by my hands and shaped slowly into form.

When I first started ceramics, I was in a season where I lost myself. I had spent so much time trying to be what others needed me to be that I stopped recognizing who I was. I didn't even know what I liked or disliked anymore.

Clay became the thing that brought me back. The moment my hands first touched it, I knew immediately it was something I could fall in love with. Eventually, I decided to make this into something bigger.

That’s when I found the word "mire". Defined as wet, spongy, muddy ground, I liked how this word wasn't the traditional description of clay. However, I wanted to make this my own because this journey isn't simply about clay but about my wet, soggy, muddy ground that slowly molded to form who I am today.

MYRE STUDIO is a reminder to myself that I am who I am through the choices I’ve leaned into, not for the pleasing of those around me but for myself. It’s about the continual molding of who I will become.
