Lava Objects
Ayala is a multidisciplinary artist based in Porto, working mainly with ceramics and papier-mâché.
Trained in industrial design, she combines tactile craftsmanship with demanding formal and material research in her practice.
Inspired by the dramatic silence of desert landscapes, her work explores muted tones, shifting textures, and an atmosphere of suspended calm.
Her creations reflect a continuous exploration of place, memory, and reflection.
Ayala regularly collaborates with interior designers on private and hotel projects, for which she designs custom pieces that bring tactility and serenity to spaces.
Her work goes beyond simple decoration: each object is conceived as a fragment of atmosphere, connecting functionality with a poetic and silent presence.
