Description

Vira is a tall, sculptural vase and planter, handmade in speckled stoneware. Its organic silhouette rises to nearly 60 cm with unique, undulating diagonal top curvatures that gives the piece a dynamic, one-of-a-kind character. The exterior features flowing drips of white glaze over the matte speckle, while the interior is fully glazed, making it waterproof and fully functional as a planter or water-holding vessel.

Celebrating imperfection while grounded in form, Vira transforms functional ceramics into a sculptural statement, merging materiality, texture, and the subtle drama of hand-thrown clay. Each piece is singular, embodying the tactile beauty and quiet presence of contemporary handmade ceramics.

About LYT Studio Visit Showroom →

Lili Yas Tayefi is an Iranian-Canadian designer, educator, and interdisciplinary artist whose abstract sculptures unearth an intuitive process reflecting her inner emotional and spiritual journey, often exploring themes of femme advocacy, healing, and self-empowerment. With extensive experience in handcraft and a background in local, biodegradable material science, Lili’s practice, LYT Studio, honours 'feel first' and precision-led philosophies, revealing how they intersect. Her practice incorporates contemporary ceramic sculpture and clay 3D printing, alongside filmmaking, painting, and printmaking. Embedded with duality, Lili's works invite an exploration of identity, intersectional feminism, and the reclamation of her culture. Over the past 15 years, she has coordinated and curated group exhibitions, and exhibited internationally at notable galleries and museums, including Museo d'Historia de Barcelona, Arts Santa Monica, Contemporary Calgary, the Museum of Contemporary Art Calgary, Center for Contemporary Printmaking, and Caroun Gallery, among others.
