Nicaraguan Art Pottery

Teodulo Potosme

 

Teodulo has been making pottery for the past 29 years. He first learned

how to produce pottery from his mother and later attended the local

ceramics school in San Juan. He also studied under Gregorio

Bracamonte to learn some of the specialized techniques.

 

Teodulo has had his own workshop for 28 years and tends to focus on

traditional styles, but also works in geometrics and some modern

pottery styles. He says that his focus on traditional pottery designs is

driven by demand and the local market since many people are interested

in these designs. Over the years he has won several awards, including

first place in traditional pottery at the national contest in Managua in

1987 and first place in a number of local competitions in both

traditional and pre-Colombian designs.
