My name is Kordula Coleman and I am a figurative ceramic sculptor. I live and work in Northeast Minneapolis.
After immigrating to the US in 2000 from Cologne, Germany, I rekindled my love for sculpting with clay.
I started sculpting at an early age and am a ceramic journeyman. My biggest challenge and achievement can be seen in the taproom of the local Hispanic brewery La Doña Cerveceria – my piece ‘La Doña’. It is a large, almost life size Day of the Dead sculpture, permanently installed since 2018.
Communicating my thoughts and emotions through my art is really important to me. I want to reach out to viewers through my art, and highlight our shared humanity. My goal is to create art that viewers can connect with in a direct, intuitive way. To accomplish that is one of my greatest rewards.

Narrative clay sculptures
Hand sculpted pieces that tell a story about life and healing.

Raku planters
Plant your succulent in style! These small Raku planters have literally gone through fire to look this cool. Each is completely unique and one-of-a-kind. Small draining hole in bottom.
Picture tiles
These 2.75×2.75 inch picture tiles show a range of my sculptural work, in the form of laser printouts transferred onto handmade tiles and made durable with mod podge. They can be used as coasters for small cups or tumblers (caution: not all of them lay super flat), or just put up as small objects of art, and contemplated in your hand.

Therapy Birds
These hand sculpted therapy birds are meant to be placed where they can be easily picked up and comfortingly held in your palm – they fit perfectly. Embossed with inspirational messages taken from movies and books that are meaningful to me, they are meant to encourage’ make you smile and keep you going.
Each bird has been hand stamped, painted and Raku fired, and is absolutely one-of-a-kind.
Portrait wall pieces
I indulge my love for sculpting the human face with these wallpieces. Inspired by quotes from books and movies that are dear to me, they explore how to express that quote trough facial features, color and texture.
These pieces are hand stamped, painted and Raku fired and absolutely one of a kind.
Compassion Angels
Compassion has become a very important and powerful trait for me in recent months – it helps fight bitterness, hatred and hopelessness. These angels express this, and are also an homage to the somber and transcendent beauty of Victorian grave monuments, as found at the London cemetery of Kensal Green. Creating it has helped me hold space in my heart for grief, continue to heal, and focus on empathy with my fellow human.
