## Meet your expert

### My story

Hi, Sandeep here. When I started pottery, good clay and tools were tough to find. Students kept asking, 'Where do we get stuff?' No clue. Old timers would say, 'हमारे टाइम में तो मिलता ही नहीं था, आप लोग तो बहुत लकी हैं.' (Back then, nothing was available, you folks are lucky.) So I thought, why not me? Studio White & Gray began to build a space for potters in Mumbai. Pottery’s my riyaaz, a discipline. The studio’s a spot for all – to learn, make, and connect. It’s not just clay, it’s finding yourself.

### My work

- **Pottery Workshops**: Hand-building, wheel pottery, Japanese Raku firing, pinching, and ceramic jewelry making classes.
- **Eco-friendly Ganesha Idol Workshop**: Make your own Ganesha idol using clay and traditional methods, especially for Ganesh Chaturthi.
- **Pottery Co-working Studio**: Open space for potters to create, fire, and share – beginners and pros welcome.
- **Guided Process**: You make your piece, we glaze and fire it. Takes a few weeks, then your creation is yours.
- **Community & Tradition**: We mix Indian craft with modern design, celebrate tradition, and connect through clay.
