Rui Patalim — Potter from São Pedro do Corval
Photos taken during my visit to the workshop of Rui Patalim, a potter from São Pedro do Corval, Alentejo. Coming from a long family tradition of pottery, Rui continues the craft using local clay and timeless techniques.
His work blends traditional forms with modern patterns and colors, keeping the spirit of Alentejo ceramics alive while bringing it into the present.
