The artist enjoys the tactile quality of clay and porcelain and has built a significant body of work in this medium.

Early in Monika's career, she was a very well-known ceramic artist in (former) East Germany. Monika Kaden's life and art changed drastically after she attended Rietveld Academie in The Netherlands and Alfred University, New York. She developed her skills and art and became known, internationally, as a  sculptor and three-dimensional designer.

In this portfolio, you'll see her latest happy figurative creations, sometimes whimsical and "cutting edge" in subtle color palettes. You will see her black burnished ceramic pieces of her earlier career, which received international awards.

Monika Kaden often takes commissions from clients who wish to celebrate a special occasion. Please contact her to discuss your needs and ideas for a special commission.
