Azul Patagonia founder Lucía Boglioli developed a love for art while growing up in Rosario. Each year, she’d visit festivals with her grandmother and find herself captivated by a man with his lathe. Years later—after training as an accountant—she took the plunge to swap her profession for pottery and moved to Villa La Angostura. Today, she specializes in nature-inspired ceramics with processes that respect the materials. She builds her shapes, then hand-paints them with pre-prepared engobes and employs the sgraffito technique to generate texture. Once dried, the pieces are baked, enameled, and returned to the oven. The process takes several days, but Lucía has the art of patience down to a T.
