My name is Myriam Koffler. I am French, and I have been living in Tel Aviv for the past 30 years.
For many years, ceramics have been part of my daily life. I have been organizing group ceramic workshops on my terrace, welcoming people who come to create, to learn, and to share a moment around clay.
Over time, and especially through recent events, I discovered something deeper in this practice. Beyond creativity and craftsmanship, ceramics revealed a powerful therapeutic dimension. Working with clay creates a sense of grounding and presence. It offers calm, stability, and a space where emotions can be expressed without words.
Through these workshops, I witnessed how shaping the earth can help people reconnect with themselves, release tension, and rebuild inner balance. What began as an artistic practice gradually became a meaningful tool for care, listening, and healing. Today, ceramics are at the heart of my work, not only as an art form, but as a way to support personal transformation and emotional resilience.
Between Sky and Earth:
Myriam’s Ceramic Daydreams
Atop a Tel Aviv rooftop, where the sky meets the horizon, Myriam Koffler shapes clay into tales. Every curve, every texture is a chapter of a journey, an encounter, a shared laughter.
Here, ceramics is not just an art; it’s a dance between hands and memories. Welcome to the workshop where the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
Enjoy your visit…
Poppies before the rain
Since the October 7 massacre, a national ceramic project has been organized throughout Israel. It is called Poppies Before the Rain. This project involves creating ceramic poppies across the country, in memory of all the innocent people who lost their lives during these tragic events. It is an act of remembrance and a symbolic gesture of renewal. These ceramic flowers will be placed in locations where tragedy occurred, including Kibbutz Be’eri, the Sderot police station, several Nova festival sites, crossroads, and many other meaningful places. From Jerusalem to Eilat, the poppies will form a silent landscape of memory. “Make your land blossom again. We will never forget.” This project is very close to my heart. Since the beginning of the tragedy, it has felt essential to transform grief into a collective, creative act that honors memory and resilience. If this meaningful and symbolic creative initiative resonates with you, and if you would like to take part or learn more, please do not hesitate to contact me.
