"The clay always knows,” she says, “even when I don’t.”
Megha Mittal, a potter and founder of Munay Studio, doesn’t just work with clay she listens to it. Inside her quiet studio, stillness isn’t the absence of motion. It’s the presence of care.
Rooted in hand-building techniques and guided by intuition, Megha shapes each piece slowly a cup, a bowl, a vase not to impress, but to connect. Her work is tactile, textured, and alive with subtle imperfections that make it unmistakably human.
Megha’s practice isn’t about performance.
It’s about returning to the self.
Her shelves hold pieces in soft, earthy tones. Her tools are worn with use. There’s music playing sometimes, or just the hum of focus. She doesn’t rush the process — she respects it. And that calm seeps into everything she makes.
