Camille Delgado Sales is an Architectural Residential Designer and Potter living in Austin, Texas. She was born in Puerto Rico and credits the culture for her love of color. She has found ways to express color in her pottery work.
She attended the University of Florida and received an undergraduate degree in Architecture, and her Master’s degree in Architecture at the University of Texas. She has practiced residential architecture for 25 years as sole owner of her business.
In 2019, she felt the urgency to pursue pottery and has been balancing architecture and studio time since then. Her work is influenced by the spaces she has designed, graphics, textiles, and ornamentation. She is interested in the ways color and line work are expressed on pottery. She feels it is a delight to bring drawing techniques, color, and clay together into a body of work.
Come in, rest… and welcome home.
My pottery invites you to enter the places we call home. As an Architectural Designer for 25 years I have designed these spaces, the flow between them and their relationship beyond the exterior walls to nature and place. It’s been my life’s work to draw out what people need to belong and experience peace.
Through imagery, I illustrate some of the rooms where we gather, entertain and take respite. I pay tribute to these spaces that offer a place of belonging and peace from the outside forces… from the many moments we encounter in life, ranging from joy to pain.
Sometimes the moments of pain and trial fragment our ability to attain peace. What lies between you and wholeness?
Seen through the fragments
Beauty beckons past the pain
Wholeness waits beyond
