Charlyn Reyes is an artist and designer whose practice focuses on sculpture and design objects. She works primarily in clay, a material she is drawn to for its history and connection to the earth. She received a Bachelor of Design (Honours) degree (BDes) from York University, in Toronto, Canada. Her reverence for the work of hands through craft traditions has inspired her ongoing explorations of form through natural materials imbued with energy. Her practice is guided by intuitive feeling and a sensitivity to her materials and process.

Following her design studies in 2013, years of experimentation in various mediums led her naturally to ceramics. Self-taught, she uses traditional hand-building techniques such as coiling to form her works in clay.
