Ceramics shaped by earth
Let’s Get Our Hands in Clay Together
I’m Danielle Martins Thomé, a ceramic artist from Brazil, now living and creating in my studio in Mountshannon, Ireland.
Dama Terra, refers to the element earth/clay and the spirit of the earth —Pachamama, Mother Earth—, the ancient force that shelters and nurtures all beings.
Dama Terra: More than experiences

Alongside creating the Dama Terra Experiences, I continue to develop my own work, exploring organic forms and textures. My background in architecture gives my pieces a sense of balance, composition, and flow, providing sculptural qualities to everyday objects, such as lamps, dishes, or vases.

I also facilitate collaborative projects, workshops, and school initiatives that invite people to engage with clay and nature.
For me, clay is a bridge between people, their creativity, and the earth that inspires every creation.
