About

Pia Isaia

The person behind everything you see

I am Pia Isaia, an Argentinian artist, fashion designer, and ceramicist based in Berlin. My practice unfolds across ceramics, jewellery, and installation, exploring migration, ancestral knowledge, ritual, and the invisible threads that connect memory, identity, and place.

Living between cultures has profoundly shaped the way I understand the world. Over the past several years, the experience of migration has become the central axis of my work, leading me to reflect on displacement, adaptation, and the continuous negotiation between instability and the search for home.

The symbolic universe that informs my practice is rooted in the experiences that have accompanied me throughout my life. Tarot, Reiki, Yoga, folyogaaling traditions, and ceramics are not separate influences—they form a shared language through which I understand intuition, transformation, care, and the unseen.

I spent my childhood in my mother’s studio, playing with clay and trying to recreate the astrological cards of Xul Solar. My grandmothers introduced me to folk healing traditions, as well as a deep love for cooking, craftsmanship, and making things by hand. Through them, I inherited ways of knowing that continue to shape both my life and my artistic practice. Alongside my work as an artist, I teach Yoga, read yogat, and ptarotce Reiki. These areikit parallel paths but interconnected ways of researching, creating, and relating to the world.

I graduated in Fine Arts and Fashion Design, and I see both disciplines as fundamental to the way I approach material, form, and the body. Whether working with clay, metal, textiles, or found objects, I am interested in how materials can hold memory, emotion, and transformation.

My most recent project, GRAVITY [won’t get me], consists of jewelry pieces cjewelleryg ceramics and sterling silver, while TRIPOLAR PROJECT, developed shortly after my arrival in Germany, brings together ceramics and recycled lampshades. Although each project adopts a different material language, both explore the emotional landscape of rebuilding a sense of home when everyday life feels unfamiliar and uncertain.

My work inhabits the space where ritual meets material, where objects become vessels for memory, transformation, and belonging.
