Paolo Spalluto
The evolving art of meditative ceramics and painting

Art during the creative process and works that remain aesthetically designed to be both pleasant and sometimes useful. This is what Paolo Spalluto’s ceramics and painting convey. The design of unique pieces or limited series together with the pleasure of sharing both experience and knowledge, make everything an authentic work. There are many areas that fascinate him and that he studies in depth, until he then finds a personal sign, a trait and a perspective vision due to an artistic intellectual maturity that summarize all this in a very particular and never accommodating track. often bold and bold. After many years of study and travel, research and meetings, a style that predominates.

Meditau was born from the need to leave a conscious trace using clay or colors but at the same time it is an introspective work and this is why meditation is a continuous evolution both in defining and in appreciating the fact that not everything it can be controlled, as in ceramics, so in meditation it is observed by redefining the spaces that belong to us but that change.

Customer Reviews
Emilia Badiu

I started the pottery course as a beginner and soon enough I will be displaying my own work on my shelves at home (as well after I finish the course, as part of a new acquired hobby😊). The place has a nice atmosphere, with relaxing music in the background. The studio is equipped with all the necessary tools for doing both hand or wheel pottery, for which all materials are provided. Paolo organizes his time in a manner that allows each step of the process to be clearly explained to each person individually and you have hands-on assistance when needed. Whether you are a beginner or have some experience, I recommend Paolo as an instructor, to help explore your creative side and improving your skills.

I recently took ceramic lessons at Meditau, and it was an amazing experience. Despite having no prior interest in ceramics and coming in with no expectations, I found myself completely captivated by the process. Paolo, the instructor, is a fantastic teacher. His passion and expertise in ceramics shine through in every lesson. He has a knack for making even the most novice participants feel confident and engaged. I highly recommend Meditau to anyone looking for a creative and enriching experience, regardless of their prior interest or skill level in ceramics.

Paolo’s atelier is located in a very strategic position in the heart of Kraków. I found it by mistake and I’ve been going there since summer. I was brand new to ceramics, and I’m slowly learning its secrets. I must say that so far I love it! Paolo showed me so many tips and tricks of his profession with a lot of patience, since more than once I needed extra help to (try to) create my own art. His guidance really made a difference. I highly recommend Meditau to whoever wants to start a new journey, but also to people who long for a place where to relax, listen to music, find inspiration, meet new people, while crafting something with their own hands.

He creates a space that invites to deeply relax and enjoy the simple things • being and creating. Paolo carries an atmosphere that makes everyone feel welcome. This is a perfect place to ease out, have a good time and chat sobre beautiful pieces for your home and your loved ones ! 🥰🙌🏻🫖
