Edwin Huasacca, ceramic artist
Born in Quinua, Ayacucho, Peru, where ceramics are woven into everyday life, Edwin Huasacca Condori learned the art of clay from his father. In the 1980s, seeking better opportunities, he and his five brothers relocated to Lima, where they established their ceramic workshops side by side to continue their family tradition.
Edwin is known for shaping expressive characters directly in clay, often without sketches, relying on memory and innate instinct. His pieces carry the spirit of Ayacucho through bright colors, playful details, and patterns inspired by regional ceramic and retablo traditions. Together with his wife, Marisol, who leads the decorative painting, Edwin creates joyful, handmade collections that celebrate imagination and Peruvian artistry.
