About Us
Harmani Ceramics is a fine arts company founded by ceramicist and teaching artist Armani Searcy, that explores functional ceramic ware. We embrace the utilitarian features of ceramics known since antiquity by nurturing an equitable lens for our collections to be embraced by all. We further reach into communities through education and exhibition.
Armani Searcy began her ceramics practice in 2014 and holds her B.A. in Studio Art from University of Colorado - Boulder with a minor in Business. Growing up and residing in Chicagoland helps her bridge ancestral land based practices with urban landscapes and cultures.
