Alessandro Strano

Alessandro Strano, is a Sicilian master wheel thrower and founder of Studio MUD, a first-of-its-kind intercultural ceramics hub in Palermo. ​Alessandro has over 30 years of experience as a ceramicist specialised in wheel throwing, and has perfected his skills over the decades by working at different studios and collaborating with local and international artists before founding a studio of his own in 2018. Alessandro’s own ceramics pieces have a unique style that merges traditional Sicilian aesthetics and modern minimalism and elevates wheel throwing’s aesthetics. He has been one of Salemi Ceramics' first Sicilian friends, and has a special place in the Salemi Ceramics family. We're excited to have him teach at our studio, and we're sure you'll love his course!
